Notes:
Agnes Undén (1887–1935) was a Swedish composer, children's author, and translator. Though her musical footprint is relatively small, she is recognized historically as part of a wave of Swedish women composers in the early 20th century. Undén primarily composed art songs (romanser) for voice and piano. Her works are characterized by lyrical melodies set to poetic texts by noted Scandinavian writers. Many of her original sheet music manuscripts have been preserved, digitized, and made available for public download by the Swedish Musical Heritage collection.
