Women and music in Middle Ages. La Cité des Dames collected female authorship, responsible for liturgical music, paraliturgical or secular, vocal and instrumental. Some are better known: Kassia, Hildegard of Bingen, Landsberg Herrada, Beatriz de Día. Other, less, as Héloïse, Margaret of Austria and Anne Boleyn, with special attention to Hispanic composers: Blanche of Castile and Gracia Baptista, without forgetting repertoires, as the city of Cristina de Pizan, writted by and for women.
