The Cambridge Companion to Women in Music since 1900
This Companion explores womens 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 contributions of women to music education and the music industries feature 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, sexualisation, 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.
Laura Hamer is Staff Tutor and Lecturer in Music at The Open University. She is the author of Female Composers, Performers, Conductors: Musiciennes of Interwar France, 19191939 (2018) and co-editor, with Helen Julia Minors, of The Routledge Companion to Women and Musical Leadership: The Nineteenth Century and Beyond (forthcoming).
