5. Maria Anna Mozart. El geni del piano que el patriarcat ens va robar. Com a mínim tan talentosa con el seu germà, va ser obligada a deixar la música quan va tenir edat de casar-se.

Maria Anna Mozart was a musical prodigy overshadowed by her brother. A new documentary tells her story The film highlights Maria Anna Mozart’s legacy, as well as the struggles women musicians faced in the 18th century (and continue to today).

“As custom would dictate, it was considered unsuitable and unseemly for a girl of that age to perform in public, likening this form of public performance to that of a prostitute.”
