This week's program celebrates women in early music: from famous composers (Hildegard of Bingen) to those we should know better (Francesca Caccini); from those who play while directing an ensemble (Katharina Bäuml, shawm and director of Capella de la Torre) to those who have thousands of pipes at their fingertips (organist Elisabeth Ullmann).
