This Companion explores women's work in music since 1900 across a
broad range of musical genres and professions, including the
classical tradition, popular music, and music technology. The
crucial contribution of women to music education and the music
industries features alongside their activity as composers and
performers. The book considers the gendered nature of the musical
profession, in areas including access to training, gendered
criticism, sexualization, and notions of 'gender appropriate' roles
or instruments. It covers a wide range of women musicians, such as
Marin Alsop, Grace Williams, Billie Holiday, Joni Mitchell and
Adele. Each thematic section concludes with a contribution from a
practitioner in her own words, reflecting upon the impact of gender
on her own career. Chapters include suggestions for further reading
on each of the topics covered, providing an invaluable resource for
students of Feminist Musicology, Women in Music, and Music and
Gender.
