Episode 1
In this episode, we talk about structural inequities in two music academies: higher education and the popular recording industry. We ask, "who gets to belong?" in both spaces (hint: racial and gendered hierarchies affect both!) and reflect on our own experiences as music theory grad students. All of our links and references are available on our blog, from-the-margins.com - check it out!
Stay tuned for part 2, featuring case studies from each academy: music by Florence Price and Beyoncé!
This episode features clips from Florence Price's "Dream Ships," accompaniment performed by All Things Piano, and Beyoncé's "TEXAS HOLD 'EM."
