Meet the Composer: Isabella Leonarda

Works for Violin, Cello, Theorbo, Harpsichord, and Vocalist

Each festival season, we strive to introduce our audience to a new composer through this series. This year, we spotlight Isabella Leonarda, an extraordinary 17th-century composer who defied expectations as a nun to become one of the most prolific female composers of her time. Known for her intricate and expressive sacred works, Leonarda’s music is rich with emotional depth and masterful counterpoint. This concert invites you to explore her groundbreaking contributions and experience the timeless beauty of her compositions.
