some women were composers. however, most were not known or neglected

Women were not only composers. Women increased recognition during the romantic era. They became music teachers, composers, conductors, singers and performers. Although they were still in the minority of music professions, the women in this era opened the doors for opportunities in the future. Some major influences were Pauline Viardot, Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel, and Clara Schumann. They even had some of their works published. This paved the way for future female professionals.
