MUS 298: Women and Music (.5 Unit) Prerequisites: MUS 104 or Permission of Instructor This class is open to students from all academic majors, and will explore the role of women and music in all aspects. Specifically, we will consider women’s work as composers, performers, teachers, patrons, audience members, and as philanthropists and social activists across simultaneous western and global music histories. Critical engagement of women’s issues such as representation of women in musical works, feminist aesthetics, and the roles of gender in the entertainment industry will focus all class discussions/listening activities. A historical overview of western art music and the limitations/opportunities for women will give rise to global roles of women in music, as well as current popular/entertainment roles for women.
