Fanny Hensel's String Quartet in E flat major represents a pivotal moment in her life and a significant contribution to 19th-century music by a female composer. As Hensel navigated her identity and societal expectations, this work emerged in a male-dominated genre. Benedict Taylor's insightful analysis places this quartet within the broader context of women's music, focusing on its strengths and qualities rather than merely critiquing obstacles faced by female composers. The book enriches the understanding of Hensel's artistry and its relevance to contemporary discussions on women's contributions to music.
