Cécile Chaminade (1857-1944) was a French composer and pianist. While sometimes overlooked in favor of her more prominent male counterparts, Chaminade's work deserves recognition for its charm, technical brilliance, and unique voice. Chaminade's piano repertoire is vast, encompassing charming character pieces like "Butterfly" virtuosic concert études like "Étude Pathétique" and sonatas. Her songs, with their expressive melodies and rich harmonies, are a delight for singers. Her orchestral compositions, such as the Concertino for Flute, Op. 107, showcase her talent for larger-scale structures and orchestral brilliance.
