Over the first half of the nineteenth century, writers like Austen
and Bronte confined their critiques to satirical portrayals of
women musicians. Later, however, a marked shift occurred with the
introduction of musical female characters where were positively to
be feared. First published in 2000, this book examines the reasons
for this shift in representations of female musicians in Victorian
fiction from 1860-1900. Focusing on changing gender roles, musical
practices and the framing of both of these scientific discourses,
the book explores how fictional notions of female musicians
diverged from actual trends in music making. This book will be of
interest to those studying nineteenth century literature and music.
