Description
The first edition (1975) was called "...a useful aid in locating biographical information on a specific female... musician..." by the Music Educator's Journal. More than 4,000 entries were included. This new two-volume edition is over five times the size of the original Women in Music Including many new titles that have been published since the first editon that deal specifically with women musicians, this edition elaborates on the expanding role of women music.
Like the 1975 edition, it serves as an index to the biographies of women musicians of all periods and countries, as found in a representative selection of significant music, dictionaries, and encyclopedias. This update also includes non-musical sources, such as general biographical sets, as well as references to obituaries from significant newspapers and trade publications, notably the New York Times , Times (London), and Variety. The designation 'musician' is considered broadly, encompassing such ancillary disciplines as music therapists, folklorists, librettists, etc.
