Queer voices

By Freya Jarman-Ivens

Subjects: Gender identity in music, Criticism and interpretation, Music, history and criticism, Queer theory, Callas, maria, 1923-1977

Description: "Queer Voices sets out both to queer the musicological and to make queer audible, arguing that the voice, particularly the singing voice, opens up a richly queer space. Using case studies from different repertoires, the book demonstrates how queer emerges particularly audibly when the voice is heard to engage with various technologies: the external technologies of music performances and recordings, technologies of power, or the internal technologies of vocal production itself"--
