The most important woman artist of her time, eighteenth-century French painter Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun was a favorite of Marie Antoinette and an intimate friend of many famous composers of her time. Her letters and diaries refer to musicians she knew personally, and others she met on travels through Vienna, Russia, and London. Fortepianist Jory Vinikour, soprano Jolle Greenleaf, and violinist Robert Mealy present works by Haydn, Grétry, Marie-Antoinette, and Gluck.
