In the discussion on women and classical music, perhaps no other instrument drawssuch a strong association with feminine stereotypes as the harp. Once the instrument ofchoice for respectable young ladies, it was considered suitable for the domestic sphereand the world of private salons. And yet, as the harp made it's way out of the home andinto the concert hall, it's publicity was championed by male performers, playing themusic of male composers. Often overlooked are the women-performers andcomposers alike-who revolutionized the instrument and gave it a solo voice.Birds of Paradise celebrates the artistic voices of women as both performers andcreators. This album showcases living composers Reena Esmail and Angelica Negronand legendary harpist and composer Henriette Renie.Featured works include Renie's Trio, the first major work written for this combination ofinstruments, alongside the world premiere recording of Negron's Ave del paraiso and thefirst recording of Esmail's Saans as arranged for harp, violin, and cello.Listeners are invited to experience this dynamic sound world, full of color and warmth,created and performed by women.
