Hot(ish) on the heels of Dora Pejacevic, Augusta Holmés (with Henri Duparc) and Florence Price, now Marie Jaëll is this week's BBC Composer of the Week. Another welcome move in the right direction...

I must say I have been enjoying her music very much indeed! This is what the BBC is for - I wish it would profile more unfamiliar composers like this.

I particularly like her Cello Concerto. Very sentimental andantino. Just wish it was a bit longer, but sometimes it is best to be short and sweet.
