But there are also male ComposerDocs!

1) Johann Lukas Schubaur (1749-1815)

was "Medizinalrat" in München and composer.
His opera "Die Dorfdeputierten" 


cover from the program booklet of this production

is being performed in September 2003,
after it had been lost for 200 years. See http://www.landvolktheater.de/Presse230801_001.htm 

Listen to (Live recording, reduced sound quality!) "Ein bisschen Ehre kitzelt doch"
Text:
Ein bisschen Ehre kitzelt doch,
und wäre sie noch so klein,
so trägt man doch die Nase hoch,
nicht wahr, so muss es sein.
Ei, wenn es um die Ehre
nicht so was Großes wäre,
wer wollt ein Deputierter sein.
Ich nicht. Ich auch nicht, nein!

and the final choir "Im Leben hat sich oft gezeigt"
Text:
Im Leben hat sich oft gezeigt,
dass der, vor dem man sich verneigt
und der sich selber hochgepriesen
als arge Niete sich erwiesen.
Was wirklich zählt von Anbeginn
ist immer der Gemeinschaftssinn.

courtesy of the conductor Alois Rottenaicher

He is said to have been a universal genius.
The humanistically educated son of a painter from Lechfeld/Bavaria
studied medicine and became a well-known medical doctor in the Munich/Bavaria society.

His grand-grand-.......son is lawyer in Germany and published a detailled resume (German)!

2) Alexander Borodin, the russian composer, violinist and state minister

3) Georg Forster I (ca. 1510 - 1568) Liederbuch PublisherDoc

Georg Forster Liederbuch - Nürnberg 1565 - Band 1  Georg Forster "Liederbuch" - Nürnberg 1565 - Band 1

Besides his professions as medical doctor, GEORG FORSTER was music lover, author, composer, collector and editor in ONE person.
His five collections of popular and tenor songs are an important document of "burgeois" music culture of the early 16th century.

In the edition of  'Des andern theyls ... Teutscher Liedlein ...' (the other part of german songs...), Nurnberg 1565 the separate parts for ‘Discantus’, ‘Altus’, ‘Tenor’ und ‘Bassus’ have been set together in a partition for modern use. They contain songs about drinking, hunting, humoristic stories, love songs and court songs and even erotical songs.

Although Forster does not use the addition  '... auff allerley Instrumenten zu brauchen' ('to play with several instruments') but explicitely '... zu singen' ('for singing') it is recommended to perform it with added instruments as the historical ones of that time like 'Flöten, Krummhörner, Cornamusen, Dulciane, Pommern und Schalmeien, Lauten, Gitarren und Gamben'.  ANY combination from "a capella" to instrumental seems to be interesting.

The texts have been left in the original, only the printing has been modernized.

1) Henriette Müller, Berlin/Germany is ComposerDoc and JazzDoc

 Jazz composer see www.henriettemueller.de 

2) Martin Heyworth is ComposerDoc

...and his work Theatre Music has been performed by the Philadelphia Doctors Orchestra:

3) Adam Dachmann is ComposerDoc

Adam has been called a healer. His music considered to be from a realm of peace and possibility. Interestingly, he happens to be a well trained general surgeon. And while medicine has received much of his focus over the years, music has been on his mind since childhood. Trained classically, Adam quickly became his teacher’s prodigy and competed nationally.
As the years passed, he became interested in composing his own music. Formal training in theory, jazz, improvisation, orchestration and production led to a seasoned young composer who still had to mature. So what better place to do it than in medical school. A graduate of the class of 1990 Adam went on to complete a surgical residency and set up a practice near Madison, WI. He released “Echoes In The Canyon” in 1998—his first solo CD. In 2002 he released “Center of My Heart.” In 2005 he released “Keys of Hope.”

4) Otmar Desch is PianoDoc, TheatreDoc, ConductorDoc and ComposerDoc


Applause after Desch's  "Aufruf des Dalai Lama" Melodram at the theatre of Stendal
www.tda-stendal.de

(........) Focus of my composition style (just besides the oratorium and many many stage music pieces exposed n my homepage) is concert music between twelve tone music and jazz,
as it can be found in my two concerts for piano and orchestra (a sample will be sent...).
Since 2007 I finally have the time to concentrate on marketing of these products since I make only contracts with the theatre about single productions.
By the way I am looking for prominent editors ... see what happens.... this much for today!

Prinzessin Ulla und die schöne Lau
Märchenoper von Thomas Stiegler (Musik) und Manfred Weiß (Text)
ab 6 Jahren, UA

Prinzessin Ulla kann nicht lachen. Weder die Spaßmacher noch klingende Geschichten oder tanzende Bären können ihr ein Lächeln entlocken. Da hört sie unter ihrem Fenster den Sänger Seppe. Der erzählt ihr, dass er auf dem Weg nach Blaubeuren ist, zum Blautopf, in dem einst die schöne Lau gelebt hat, die erst glücklich wurde, als sie fünf Mal von Herzen gelacht hatte. Gemeinsam machen sie sich auf die Reise. Sie rudern über den Neckar, übernachten im Freien, wandern über die Alb. Schließlich erreichen sie den Blautopf. Da die schöne Lau nicht zu sehen ist, wird Ulla wütend. Plötzlich zieht eine unsichtbare Kraft die Prinzessin ins Wasser. Als sie wieder auftaucht, schweigt sie. Im Traum erscheint ihr die schöne Lau. Beim Erwachen ist ihr, als hätte sie gelacht. Doch nun ist Seppe verschwunden. Ulla sucht ihn. Ob sie am Ende auch von Herzen lachen kann?
 
Auf der Grundlage von Eduard Mörikes Erzählung von der »Schönen Lau« aus dem »Stuttgarter Hutzelmännlein« entstand eine moderne Märchenoper, phantastisch-bunt, spielerisch und weise: Sie handelt vom Glück, das sich uns jeden Tag unverhofft und leise zeigen kann, solange wir die Neugier und Offenheit Neues zu entdecken nicht verlieren. Dann wird unser Mut wundervoll belohnt: mit einem herzlichen Lachen.
Ein Auftragswerk der WLB in Kooperation mit Musik der Jahrhunderte/Netzwerk Süd und indieOper e. V.
