Marianna Martines (1744-1812) was one of eighteenth-century Vienna's most prominent composers. She received more acclaim than perhaps any other female composer of her time.
Martines was a renowned singer as well as harpsichord player and composer. Empress Maria Theresa, the biggest musical patron in Vienna, was immensely taken with the young composer. Martines went on to perform for the Empress many times and may have even dedicated works to her. Martines was also one of the greatest composers of her time. She was an inspiration as a singer, keyboardist, event manager, concert organizer, teacher, and more.
At a time when most male composers either worked for the church or a royal court, Martines was able to accomplish incredible things without formal employment. Martines's story is one of triumph, resilience and character. She didn't allow the limitations of the time to prevent her from pursuing a musical career and creating a name for herself as one of the most important figures in Vienna.
