Appearance and reality: between the radiant idyll and the subterranean other, the big question mark flashes up again and again in this program. Highly acclaimed, forgotten, rediscovered: Emilie Mayer’s vita reflects the deceptive “idyll” of the female composer, first celebrated as a female Beethoven and promptly archived as a second-rate female epigone.
