About

German composer Johanna Senfter was a student of Max Reger, who recognised her musical talent and encouraged her to pursue advanced studies in his composition class in Leipzig, which she completed with distinction in 1909. In 1910, she was awarded the Arthur Nikisch Prize for the best student composition of the year. Born into a well-to-do industrial family, she was financially independent and able to devote herself entirely to her creative work throughout her life. In addition to numerous chamber works, she left behind nine symphonies. From the youthful 'Sturm und Drang' of her First Symphony (1914) to the thoughtfully moving Ninth (1949), composed after two world wars, the development of her musical language can be discovered here with these world-premiere recordings.
