It was created by the Dutch Lagazze Quartet and soprano Catherine Dane in collaboration with five female composers. The album portrays five women: Circe, Medea, and Penelope from Greek mythology; Cassia, a 9th-century Byzantine poet; and Maria, a 16th-century midwife from the Basque region. Moving away from fixed interpretations, it reimagines their struggles and agency through their own words and perspectives. Built around a soprano and string quartet, the album incorporates a diverse array of traditional instruments—such as the duduk, kanun, and kemenche—along with percussion and tape recordings, creating an exquisitely intricate and varied soundscape. In today’s society, where gender inequality still persists, recording and presenting these historical and mythological stories as contemporary musical works represents a significant endeavor of great universality.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Channel Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53419252285729,"sku":"4589538834319","price":3790.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538834319.jpg?v=1788227609","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538834319","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
