Women, Music, Culture: An Introduction, Third Edition is the first undergraduate textbook on the history and contributions of women in a variety of musical genres and professions, ideal for students in Music and Gender Studies courses. A compelling narrative, accompanied by 112 guided listening experiences, brings the world of women in music to life. The author employs a wide array of pedagogical aides, including a running glossary and a comprehensive companion website with links to Spotify playlists and supplementary videos for each chapter. The musical work of women throughout history--including that of composers, performers, conductors, technicians, and music industry personnel--is presented using both art music and popular music examples.

Julie C. Dunbar is Professor Emerita of Music at Edgewood College, Madison, Wisconsin, where she taught music history, music appreciation, instrumental music education, and served as Faculty Development Coordinator. Her past publications focus on music in sociocultural contexts as well as vocation in higher education.
