Exploring Feminist Scholarship in Music Theory
Organizer(s): Carla Colletti (Webster University,)
Chair(s): Carla Colletti (Webster University)
The 2023 session sponsored by the Committee on Feminist Issues and Gender Equity (formerly the Committee on the Status of Women) will explore the foundation of feminist scholarship and the movement toward “feminist” models of analysis in music scholarship. A special focus will be placed on the connections between the committee’s history, its founding members’ experiences, and the shift toward topics and analytical styles that were once considered “taboo” or “lesser than” other methods of analysis.
Part 1 of our 2023 session will begin with historical reflections by Judith Lochhead about the committee’s beginnings and early experiences with feminist issues related to music scholarship. After a short break, Part 2 of our session will focus on analyses that feature feminist models.
