Some day :) . I am with you on giving credit and glad to have such a kind-hearted, talented, and generous poet friend to commiserate with, you’re an inspiration.

I love Wolfgang’s work. To me Mozart is and always will be perfect. But I remember as a child when I fell in love with the early pieces and learned about his composing parts for his sister to play that I was curious about her. I’m sure there were things I could have researched about her at the library but I always kept getting lost in the card catalog of so many things when I was allowed to go there. … besides I was usually home practicing.

When I became aware of the sacrifice of women in music – it was Clara Schumann I focused on. My heavens to do what she did!!! and not with one frail and not that experienced a musician. I see her hand in very much of Robert’s work, and I see her influence in a completely different way in Brahm’s. In the latter though with the older children in a position to take care of the younger, I imagine it was fulfilling and at least she was performing again…but the compositions (because she did have the education) so much “given” away, so much she will never be given credit for – except perhaps for you and me.

Brilliant use of the musical terms in the way you built the piece. Of course i LOVE it!

I missed you! We are making progress and I look forward to the day when I don’t have to write the fury because equality is the reality.

Thank you for your kind words, I try to be prepared :) . ‘Soar above all other tyranny’ is a poem in itself.

Your tribute is a fitting evocation of the injustice done her, as well as the sad echo of possibilities never realised.
