Gabrielle Ferrari studied with Théodore Dubois and also received advice from Charles Gounod. She was both a piano virtuoso and a composer, of eight operas and other works. Her greatest success, 'Le Cobzar', drame lyrique en deux actes, was first performed in Paris in 1912 at the Paris Opera, conducted by Henri Rabaud. The digitised score is available here.
In its 2023 Advent Calendar, La Boîte à Pépites presents a portrait of a female composer every day. Gabrielle Ferrari's Tarantelle is the entry for 9th December.
