So You Want to Sing Music by Women opens wide a vast repertoire of
vocal music written by women to advocate for widespread inclusion
of this too-often neglected work in performance repertoire. Hoch
and Lister provide a historical and contemporary perspective,
chronicling the Western art music canon while also addressing
contemporary trends in music theater and CCM. In addition to
providing a historical overview and social context in which women
created music, this volume explores the music of hundreds of
historical and contemporary women composers, such as Hildegard von
Bingen, Clara Schumann, Lili Boulanger, Cathy Berberian, Erykah
Badu, and Sara Bareilles. In addition to discussions of art song,
opera, choral music, and avant garde/experimental music, Erin
Guinup and Amanda Wansa Morgan also contribute chapters devoted to
music theater, CCM, and advocacy for women composers. Interviews
with high-profile composers including Lori Laitman, Rosephanye
Powell, Meredith Monk, Georgia Stitt provide accounts from the
frontlines of today's composing world. Additional chapters by Scott
McCoy and Wendy LeBorgne address vocal technique and health, and
Matthew Edwards provides guidance for working with sound
technology. The So You Want to Sing series is produced in
partnership with the National Association of Teachers of Singing.
Like all books in the series, So You Want to Sing Music by Women
features online supplemental material on the NATS website. Please

video files, and additional resources.
