The Musical Woman

This volume of The Musical Woman continues the long-neglected task of documenting the full scope of participation by women in every facet of the music world. The time period covered is the 1982-1983 season through 1984-1985; forecasts have been included for 1985-1986. The work was compiled from volumnious primary source materials, including newsletters of composer organizations, data from foreign music information centers, publishers' announcements, concert programs, newspapers, and other music periodicals, and the composers themselves. The Musical Woman provides a comprehensive sampling of the varied activities of women composers and conductors worldwide in order to bring to light additional activities of women in the music field.
