Musical performance, like all aspects of culture, is profoundly
influenced by issues of sexuality and gender-related behaviours.
This volume offers an introduction to the field of women, music and
culture, examining the implications of gender upon music
performance. The presentation focuses on women from many different
countries, societies and historical periods, from the professional,
urban musician to the village preserver of traditional music and
culture, from the young woman of the nineteenth-century hymnody
tradition of the United States to the female tayu or chanter in the
male-dominated Gidayu narrative tradition of Japan.
