✨ ​IBSL is thrilled Wigmore Hall will celebrate Ina Boyle with a concert in 2026, perfectly resonating with the words of her mentor, Ralph Vaughan Williams: "I think it is most courageous of you to go on with so little recognition. The only thing to say is that it sometimes does come finally." ✨

Compositrices is an 8-disc study of 21 female composers of French Romantic music, some legends and some nearly forgotten. That it even exists is a joy, and one you can share in with trivial effort and expense.
