The publication series Danish Classical Music (DCM) brings musical heritage to today’s musicians, researchers and listeners.
DCM is currently (re)publishing works by historically overlooked female composers in meticulous and reliable practical-scholarly music editions.
Many of these works have never been published before, have rarely been performed, and have since faded into obscurity.
By making these works accessible today, we help to reestablish female composers in music history — where they truly belong.
List of composers

Each edition contains a preface with an introduction to the work, its genesis and reception history, a section with the “clean” sheet music, free of editorial comments and readily usable for musicians, and an afterword with a detailed description of sources, critical comments, and an overview of the editor’s emendations.
