Uncovering Music of Early European Women (1250 - 1750) brings
together nine chapters that investigate aspects of female
music-making and musical experience in the medieval and early
modern periods. Part I, "Notes from the Underground," treats the
spirituality of women in solitude and in community. Parts II and
III, "Interlude" and "Music for Royal Rivals," respond to Joan
Kelly's famous feminist question and suggest that women of a
certain stature did have a Renaissance. Part IV, "Serenissime
Sirene," plays with the notion of the allure of music and its risks
in Venice during the Baroque. The process of uncovering requires
close listening to women's creative endeavors in an ongoing effort
to piece together equitably the terrain of early music.
Contributors include: Cynthia J. Cyrus, Claire Fontijn, Catherine
E. Gordon, Laura Jeppesen, Eva Kuhn, Anne MacNeil, Jason Stoessel,
Elizabeth Randell Upton, and Laurence Wuidar. An invaluable book
for college students and scholars interested in the social and
cultural meanings of women in early music.
