description: "Claudia Sessa was an Italian composer and singer/instrumentalist. She was born into the (de) Sessa family, a patrician clan of the Milanese aristocracy. A nun at the convent of S. Maria Annunciata, she composed two sacred works published in 1613. The dates of her birth and death are uncertain. Gerolamo Borsieri wrote a long and glowing description of her, including that she sang and accompanied herself so well \"that there was not a singer who could equal her\" and that nobility in Parma and Mantua liked her singing more than \"Claudio Monteverdi [or] any other musician in the recitative style...\""
