  1. Isabella Leonarda (September 6, 1620-February 25, 1704)🇮🇹 was a cloistered Ursuline sister and composer who over the course of 6 decades composed over 200 pieces. Unfortunately, due to her being a cloistered nun her work was not well known beyond her area of Northern Italy. She dedicated all of her work to the Virgin Mary.
