Women & Minority Genders In Music
The Women and Minority Genders in Music report by Dr Felicity Wilcox and Dr Barrie Shannon presents new, primary data about the lived experience of over 200 music creators of diverse genders in Australia and Aotearoa/New Zealand. It provides a unique insight into present-day music creation from practitioners active across a wide spectrum of musical genres. A major contribution this report makes to the comparative literature on gender in music is through its consistent reporting on the professional experiences of music creators who identify as trans and/or gender diverse.
