Women and the Western art canon: where are we now?
In 1993 my book Gender and the Musical Canon explored the theoretical, historical, and practical factors surrounding women and their music in the Western canon. (1) In this essay, I will discuss the current status of key concepts of the study, which show noticeable change after almost fifteen years. These include the place of social history, modelings of repertorial and disciplinary canons, and actual musical dissemination. The impact of third-wave feminism, not treated in the book, is also discussed. Despite the changes, it is still critical that librarians be active in acquiring works by women.
