Abstract
- This article explores the important role that women organists played in the early music movement and historically informed performance in the 20th century. It specifically highlights the work of Susi Jeans, who was a prominent figure in historical performance at the organ. Jeans performed lesser-known repertoire, conducted research, and taught students. The article also addresses the lack of recognition for women in early music histories and emphasizes the need to acknowledge their contributions. It mentions other notable women organists, such as Marie-Claire Alain and Montserrat Torrent, who also made significant contributions to historical keyboard performance. The article concludes by remembering Susi Jeans as a forgotten heroine in the field and reflecting on the relevance of her work today. [Extracted from the article]
