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, cultures and historical periods--from the professional
musician to the village preserver of traditional music and culture,
from the young woman of the 19th century of hymnody tradition of
the U.S. to the female tayu or chanter in the male dominated Gidayu
narrative tradition of Japan.
