Composers

For a number of years, we at KVAST have been collecting women composers from around the world and across the centuries. Today, websites about women composers exist in abundance, so at present we are not adding more names to our list. Instead, check out our Links List (see above) for a wealth of additional information about women composers and their music.

About us

The Swedish Association of Women Composers (Kvinnlig Anhopning av Svenska Tonsättare – KVAST) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to raise awareness for women composers and promote the performance of their music.
What’s a kvast, you may ask? In Swedish, the word kvast means “broom.”
