Women in Music

This course will examine the role of women as performers, creators, and consumers of music in a variety of contexts within the Western Art Music tradition. In addition to surveying influential figures and their unique musical roles, a primary goal will be to interpret representations of women, gender, and sexuality in a variety of musical and social contexts. Ultimately, students will be challenged to consider their own perspectives, musical experiences, and interpretation of gender representations in the world today.
