Elements in Women in Music provides an exciting and timely resource for an area of music scholarship which is undergoing rapid growth. The subject of music, women and culture is widely researched in the academy, and has also recently become the focus of much public debate in mainstream media.
This international series will bring together many different strands of research on women in classical and popular music. Envisaged as a multimedia digital ‘stage’ for showcasing new perspectives and writing of the highest quality, the series will make full use of online materials such as music sound links, audio and/or film materials (e.g. performances, interviews – with permission), podcasts and discussion forums relevant to chosen themes.
The series will appeal primarily to music students and scholars, but will also be of interest to music practitioners, industry professionals, educators and the general public.
