Canadian pianist Christina Petrowska Quilico now takes listeners on a musical excursion into the works of largely neglected women composers in her new album Global Sirens. The release features music by fifteen composers from the United States, Canada, Russia, South Africa, Germany, Italy, Australia, and France, written between the mid 1900s and the present. As Petrowska Quilico describes it, the selections represent "only a fraction of the scope and breadth of works that have been rarely played or forgotten, but which deserve to be heard and enjoyed." Traditional, impressionist, 12-tone, minimalist, folk, ragtime, and romantic treasures are reflected in a kaleidoscope of musical styles. "From waltzes, rags, a composition for the left hand alone, and other quirky and edgy works, women show their enormous strength and wealth of compositional creativity," says the pianist.
