FYS 039 Music and Gender

Can we hear gender difference in music? Why are there no "great" women composers? What power does a performance wield? To examine these questions, we will explore issues of sexual aesthetics, power, class, cha(lle)nging the roles, and gender as/and performance. In an active classroom environment and discussion based course, you will challenge, lead, explore and develop your own point of view while you discover your own contribution to the arts through valid argument.
