- This reminds me: a couple of months ago NPR had a report on a chamber
- ensemble who had researched and recorded works by several baroque-era
- women composers. I think the name of the group is Ars Femina, but I'm not
- sure. Can anyone provide some detail to this (name of the group, name of
- recording, label, etc.?)

- Thanks,
