Settimia Caccini (6 October 1591 – ca. 1638, Italy) was a well-known Italian singer and composer during the 1600s being one of the first women to have a successful career in music. Caccini was highly regarded for her artistic and technical work with music. Settimia comes from a family of well-known composers and singers, with her father being Giulio Caccini one of the more famed composers of this time known for helping to establish monodic music. This type of music opposed traditional music then, by having expressive melodies and evocative chords. As well as her father being into music she also had an older sister who was a famous composer of the time. Although she is not as well known as her sister, Francesca Caccini, mostly due to the fact Settimia never published any of her own music co
