    This album collects instrumental, vocal, and chamber music by "six women composers from The Netherlands", to quote its subtitle directly. These works cover a span of about 160 years, and are presented in the chronological order of the composers' birth years. This CD is yet another example of how the now-sadly-defunct NM Classics label served the music of its country so well. This album comes recommended to those interested in Dutch music, and music by female composers.
    Thus, in order of presentation on the album:

    1. Gertrude van den Bergh (1793-1840) was actually born in Cologne, Germany, to a Dutch father and German mother. She settled in The Hague at around age 20. This album features two of her solo piano works, her 'Rondeau', op. 3, dating from 1820/1821, and the 'Lied' (no opus number given, as this work came back to light in the 1950s and the composer had not dated the work). The Rondeau is generally energetic in character, and has fleeting moments that feel like Beethoven or Mendelssohn, except that given the publication date, there is no reason to think that she knew of Mendelssohn's music, i.e. her style is more likely independent of Mendelssohn's, but just happens to sound similar. The 'Lied' begins in a more relaxed manner, but then turns into a mellow moto perpetuo, if that doesn't sound strange. Both works have a certain charm about them.

    2. Catharina van Rennes (1858-1940) is represented by selections for female voices and piano, her Three Quartets (poems by Emil Claar), op. 24, and two songs from the set Schwalbenflug (Flight of the Swallows), op. 59, to one translation by Cornelia Voûte of a poem by Felix Rutten, and a poem by Voûte herself. All the settings are quite enjoyable and charming. Interestingly, in the op. 24 settings, there is but one soprano, with 3 mezzo-sopranos as the other female voices (one can be an alto).

    3. Elisabeth Kuyper (1877-1953) had the distinction of founding, during her career, three womens' orchestras in as many cities, Berlin, London and New York City, each of which unfortunately folded in the end, for lack of sustainable audiences and funding. This recording features five out of her Six Lieder, op. 17, which uses two different female vocal soloists, soprano for 3 songs, and mezzo-soprano for the other two. These songs are very much in the "romantic song tradition", as the liner notes put it, very nice listening.

    4. With Henriette Bosmans (1895-1952), the album suddenly jumps well into the 20th century, with her "Verses from 'Maria Lécina'" from 1950. The text sets the tale of a Spanish prostitute, albeit with a Dutch text by J.W.F. Werumeus Buning. Bosmans uses what might be considered "typical" Spanish rhythms in the piano part, but includes more modernist touches such as the rendering of 'Porque Maria' in spoken text, meant to sound anguished. The language is definitely more chromatic than the earlier works, though not 'atonal' in any way.

    5. The string quartet of Iet Stants (1903-1968) is perhaps the single most striking work on the album, IMHO, and a real find. It lasts just short of 14 minutes, but packs a lot of invention and energy into that short time. The work is in 4 distinct movements, but the CD only lists one track (track 14; no indication of indexing of individual movements). This work is all the more remarkable when you know that Stants wrote it when she was 18. It becomes the more saddening to read that she gave up composition at some point (the liner notes don't give much detail). One also wonders about the "not always beneficial" influence of one of her teachers, composer Willem Pijper, especially as the notes do not elaborate on that "harm".

    6. The final work on the album, the string quartet "Contrafactus" by Tera de Marez Oyens (1932-1996, although she was still alive at the time of this recording) from 1981, is, at the risk of stating the incredibly obvious, the most modernist-sounding work on the album, in its advanced and highly chromatic language. According to the liner notes, the title refers to ideas from Boris Blacher, George Steiner and Douglas Hofstadter. Unlike the Iet Stants quartet, the de Marez Oyens quartet is truly in a single continuous track. It does have the general "modern music" feel, if that makes sense.
