Recordings
We are extremely thrilled with La Donna Musicale’s upcoming recording of LA VIRTUOSA DI VENEZIA: The Unique Anna Bon. This CD focuses on the recently recovered works of eighteenth-century composer Anna Bon. It will make significant contributions to her biography and known repertory, and brings together the talents of 16 musicians of La Donna Musicale, plus the appearance of the extraordinary soprano Julianne Baird, the leadership of Laury Gutiérrez and the musicological support of Dr. David Lasocki of Indiana University.

Publications
Music by women composers is not often available in facsimile or modern editions. La Donna Musicale has retrieved much of this music from library holdings throughout the United States and Europe. Music by women composers that is not yet commercially published will be printed in modern editions and made available to the public. This project is expected to begin in 2010.

Interactive Education
As part of its educational mission, La Donna Musicale is developing an interactive compact disc, centering around a lecture recital for young people. This project complements the school out-reach program by presenting a synthesis of La Donna Musicale's performance and research activities in an entertaining and informative manner.

Personal Library
La Donna Musicale collects microfilm and facsimile copies of women composers' music. This resource, along with an anticipated recording archive, creates the foundation of an invaluable resource that, with proper funding, may soon be accessible to the public.
