Description
This advanced seminar examines how music, as a cultural practice, relates to gender and sexuality. How has music played a role in producing, reinforcing, or defying constructions of gender and sexuality? How have music reception, professionalization, aesthetics, and canon formation been impacted by these discourses? This course will address these and other questions through historical and contemporary theories of gender and sexuality, and in relation to a wide range of musical works and practices from Western art music, popular music, and traditional music. We will also be attentive to how issues of gender and sexuality are intersectional with other aspects of identity, such as religion, ethnicity, and class.
Restriction(s): Registration as a graduate student in Music or by permission of the instructor.
