Race and Gender in the Western Music History Survey: A Teacher's
Guide provides concrete information and approaches that will help
instructors include women and people of color in the typical music
history survey course and the foundational music theory classes.
This book provides a reconceptualization of the principles that
shape the decisions instructors should make when crafting the
syllabus. It offers new perspectives on canonical composers and
pieces that take into account musical, cultural, and social
contexts where women and people of color are present. Secondly, it
suggests new topics of study and pieces by composers whose work
fits into a more inclusive narrative of music history. A thematic
approach parallels the traditional chronological sequencing in
Western music history classes. Three themes include people and
communities that suffer from various kinds of exclusion: Locales
& Locations; Forms & Factions; Responses & Reception.
Each theme is designed to uncover a different cultural facet that
is often minimized in traditional music history classrooms but
which, if explored, lead to topics in which other perspectives and
people can be included organically in the curriculum, while not
excluding canonical composers.
