Ina Boyle: The Irish Composer you NEED to listen to

EDIT: Ina's only opera, Maudlin of Paplewick, was completed in 1964 (not 1966) and is set to a libretto by Ben Jonson (not Edith Somerville).In this episode, we uncover the life and work of Ina Boyle (1889–1967), one of Ireland’s most remarkable composers. Living most of her life in the quiet countryside, Boyle composed symphonies, choral works, and chamber music at a time when few women were recognised in classical music. Join us as we explore how Boyle’s resilience, artistry, and devotion to her craft helped shape Irish classical music, and why her music deserves to be heard today. 🎵Recommended Listening: Symphony No.1 Glencree: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_n34JV5aGAConcerto for Violin and Orchestra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFAd9Xst1wg Elegy for Cello and Orchestra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oixze9lvhtcThe Magic Harphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5N9vKoX66w✨New Episodes Every Monday✨Let’s Get Social 📱For more Classical Queens, follow us on: Video Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@ChordsandQueensTikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@chordsandqueens⁠Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/chordsandqueens?igsh=eGlkYWgyN3hmMnhm&utm_source=qr⁠ Substack: https://substack.com/@chordsqueens
