Cécile Chaminade
 

Cécile Chaminade

This Women's History Month CapRadio highlights a different woman in music each weekday. Today's classical spotlight is on Cécile Chaminade.

  • Born in Paris in 1857, Cécile Chaminade first took piano lessons from her mother and at about age 10 began private piano lessons with teachers from the Conservatory of Paris and composition with Benjamin Godard.
  • In 1869 she played some of her compositions for Georges Bizet who reportedly was impressed.
  • At about age 21 Cécile performed a recital of only her own compositions which she continued to do for the rest of her adult career, eventually touring through Europe and even the United States in 1908 where sheet music of her compositions was very popular.
  • In 1913 Chaminade was awarded the Légion d'Honneur, the highest order of merit in France and a first for a female composer.

Cécile Chaminade’s 1881 Piano Trio No. 1 is today's Midday Masterpiece with more of her music throughout the day.
