Ben Kelly UNIV 112 Integrated Research Ben Kelly UNIV 112 Integrated Research How have women been systematically oppressed in Music [Ben Kelly] Women in Music Women in music as performers and as music makers and composers have historically been censored and shoved aside as artists to make way for males. Music performance and composition is still today a male­dominated field, with women usually taking niche roles. As in the case of Vi Redd, jazz saxophonist, who said “‘he [Basie] didn’t let me play [alto saxophone] much because Marshal [Royal, the lead alto player for the Basie band] didn’t like it. When I was singing, they were happy, but as soon as I started playing, they didn’t like that.’Clearly she was accepted more as a singer than as a saxophonist” (Suzuki 8). This way of fitting women into a box musically occurs also in composition. Because composition in schools was so hostile towards women and because music has historically been so exclusive to men, women have taken ​ to creating private women­only composers organizations to compose with their kind, and without malicious scrutiny (Hershenson). However, the existence of women­only group for composers is only a reminder of the problem, even if it is progression, says Ruth Schonthal (Hershenson). There are many barriers for women in the creation of music, not just as performers, where one might see them the most. Women as Music Makers Roberta Hershenson, freelance writer on musical subjects for the legendary newspaper The New York Times, in her article entitled “Female Composers Seeking Parity” paints a picture ​ of the status of women composers in the 80’s and throughout history, and their fight for equal status. She goes through several examples of inequality in the musical field for non­male composers. This includes composers like Elizabeth Bell. “When Elizabeth Bell was in college in 1950, she was told that women couldn’t be composers. ‘Women don't have the strength,’ a teacher said. ‘That made me so mad I had to do it,’ declared Ms. Bell, who has since produced an impressive list of musical compositions, including a symphony”(Hershenson). This is a perfect example of how male oppression has kept women down in terms of making music. Bell found the drive to compose anyway, but imagine how many women before and after her believed that teacher, or where at the very least discouraged by it, and decided to not compose. Even with barriers like this that discourage women from ever composing, there are still more for those that did. Prolific composer and pianist Ruth Schonthal estimates that there were 8,000 to 10,000 composers of concert music in the United states, about 2,000 of whom were women. ‘There has been a lot of good music lying in the closet,’ she said”(Hershenson). This just goes to show that even after you get to the composition stage, the actual performance stage becomes trickier. Women face just as much prejudice, if not more, as performers as composers. This is true in many types of music, especially including classical and jazz. Women as Performers Music writer and saxophonist Yoko Suzuki’s article “Invisible Woman: Vi Redd’s Contribution as a Jazz Saxophonist,” from American Music Review sheds light on a since ​ ​ forgotten jazz saxophonist and singer, Vi Redd. The article tells of her triumphs as a musician in a almost entirely male dominated field and the stigma around woman instrumentalists in Jazz music in the 60’s and 70’s. The 2013 article shares the many jazz greats that Vi played with, and goes into detail as to why they are remembered as legends while she is forgotten. Vi Redd stands out as a performer in both the jazz world and in general because she plays the saxophone, an instrument that’s masters in the history of music are almost exclusively male. This rarity might seem to be a sign of progress to some, but to the jazz players of the 60’s and seventies, a woman playing saxophone was much unwanted competition. Female jazz performers faced opposition at all sides, explains Karin Pendles’ Women and Music: a history. Karin Pendle, writer of Rugene ​ ​ ​ Scribe and French Opera of the Nineteenth Century, among others, brings her musicologist ​ knowledge to the collection of historical tidbits known as Woman and Music: A History. This ​ ​ book is pretty much exactly what it says it is, a history of women and music, starting from ancient forms of music to contemporary american popular music. It states that “men typically refused to take women seriously as gifted musicians and did not welcome them as competitors for jobs. At the same time, almost no role models existed for women as jazz artists, and their families seldom supported their career aspirations” (Pendle 290). In addition, “More recently, in his discussion of "the gender problem" in jazz, the historian Neil Leonard observed: ‘Women function in secondary roles as pianists, singers, dancers, den mothers, homemakers, breadwinners, and sex objects, but seldom are firstline musicians’” (Pendle 289). ​ So it is easy to see why fantastic jazz players like Vi Redd might as well not even exist to modern jazz players, because she was seldom hired to play saxophone, and was seldom recorded. Vi had help from others to try and get her recorded, but because she was a woman instrumentalist, a rarity in jazz, no recording company wanted to take the chance(Suzuki 6). So women as jazz performers, had a ridiculous number of obstacles to overcome to become successful. The biggest one being “jazz is fundamentally an oral tradition, which the young typically learn by playing with established figures. Systematically excluded from entry­level ​ opportunities and denied the essential period of apprenticeship, women players were rarely able to develop their talents to a professional level, let alone establish themselves as viable jazz artists”(Pendle 290). Amazingly though, Vi Redd did manage to become very successful outside the recording studio, performing with the likes of Count Basie and Dizzy Gillespie. Still though, she faced obstacles from these two. Dizzy Gillespie,often introduced Vi on stage in many patronizing and chauvinistic ways, including calling her a woman that had been “enjoyed many times before.” (Suzuki 6). Jazz is not the only venue in which women faced oppression as performers. In classical music too, there is much turmoil. Unlike jazz, which thrived through women in its early history, (The oral traditions of early african american music thrived with the women of the typical black household. (Pendle 283)), Classical music has historically been male dominated. This is especially true with things like medieval chants. This is evident in the way all female groups that perform this music are taken, like Anonymous 4 and Sequentia Vox. “As Knighton suggested in her first “Women’s Music” review, part of all women’s ensembles’ success depends on the familiarity listeners have with the all­male traditions—the cathedral choir tradition in the United Kingdom, the boy choir tradition in Austria and Germany, and the recent interest in Gregorian chant in American popular culture.”(Yri 8) So what Yri is saying is that Listeners require a background in medieval culture to appreciate all female choirs, because otherwise there would be much less interest. They must think that medieval chant is a guy’s club to appreciate that girls can do it too (Yri 8). This is explained in the journal Women and Music by ​ ​ Kristen Yri. Musicologist and writer for Women and Music, Kristen Yri’s article “Remaking the ​ ​ Past” discusses the inherent spiritual and feminist messages sent by two all­female choirs that perform medieval chants other vocal works. The 2008 article draws from critics reactions to the groups to illustrate a larger message about females performing music from a male­dominated field. The perception of all female choir music like this is shaped by the negative opinions as well. An all female ensemble is seen as a feminist move onto the male dominated world, an annexing of land in the male dominated country of medieval chant (Yri 2), and the perception of an all female choir is that it is a political statement instead of what it is at face value, and the musicality of the group can be lost because of this (Yri 2). So this goes to show that it is indeed an odd thing to bring women into music like this, and that takes away from the music, when it really should not. The music should be taken at face value, not by the gender of those performing it. This is really the essence of the gender problem in music. Gender should really not take a role at all. Music is music, regardless of who’s making it. Annotated Bibliography Hershenson, Roberta. "Female Composers Seeking Parity" New York Times. New York Times, ​ ​ ​ 1 May 1987: Web. 2015.

Wiley Hitchcock Institute for Studies in American Music Conservatory of Music, Brooklyn College of the City University of New York Volume XLII, Number 2 Spring 2013 Invisible Woman: Vi Redd’s Contributions as a Jazz Saxophonist By Yoko Suzuki, University of Pittsburgh The story of alto saxophonist Vi Redd illustrates yet another way in which women jazz instrumentalists have been excluded from the dominant discourse on jazz history. Although she performed with such jazz greats as Count Basie, Max Roach, Dizzy Gillespie, and Earl Hines, she is rarely discussed in jazz history books except for those focusing specifically on female jazz musicians. One reason for her omission is that jazz historiography has heavily relied on commercially produced recordings. Despite her active and successful career in the 1960s, Redd released only two recordings as a bandleader, in 1962 and 1964. Reviews of these recordings, along with published accounts of her live performances and memories of her fellow musicians illuminate how Redd’s career as a jazz instrumentalist was greatly shaped by the established gender norms of the jazz world. Elvira “Vi” Redd was born in Los Angeles in 1928. Her father, New Orleans drummer Alton Redd, worked with such jazz greats as Kid Ory, Dexter Gordon, and Wardell Gray. Redd began singing in church when she was five, and started on alto saxophone around the age of twelve, when her great aunt gave her a horn and taught her how to play. Around 1948 she formed a band with her first husband, trumpeter Nathaniel Meeks. She played the saxophone and sang, and began performing professionally.

We want to be able to build a catalog of records and tapes by women that reflects our pasts, our presents and our futures. We want to discover and share with you music by women of all races, ages and classes...Women's music (written, performed and produced by women, on women's labels, for women)... music by, for and about lesbians... records documenting the herstory of women in music... music for children that doesn't insult their intelligence or bore them... political and non-sexist music... recordings by women from around the world and in foreign (to us) languages...recordings of women with non- traditional styles and instruments... music that reflects innovative contributions by women... and some hard-to-get and cut-out LPs. Many of the records we offer have been made by predominantly male record companies and include the work of male musicians, engineers, producers, etc. Until recently women musicians didn't have the idea to or couldn't afford to produce their own records or tapes, or didn't have access to the equipment or technology to do it. But their work laid the foundations of Women's music and was a source of inspiration and strength for many women throughout the years before we started taking our music into our own hands.

  • Firing the Canon: Multiple Insularities in Jazz Criticism
    FIRING THE CANON: MULTIPLE INSULARITIES IN JAZZ CRITICISM By © 2014 Christopher Robinson Submitted to the graduate degree program in American Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson, Sherrie Tucker ________________________________ Randal Jelks ________________________________ Tony Bolden ________________________________ John Gennari ________________________________ William J Harris Date Defended: April 7, 2014 The Dissertation Committee for Christopher Robinson certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Firing the Canon: Multiple Insularities in Jazz Criticism ________________________________ Chairperson, Sherrie Tucker Date approved: April 7, 2014 ii ABSTRACT Whereas many jazz scholars focus on jazz criticism's construction and implications of a single, or insular, jazz canon, this dissertation argues that what many jazz critics do is precisely the opposite. These critics disrupt the sense of a singular and insular jazz canon by challenging it through the creation of what I call an insularity, which is a bounded collection of artists and music with a definable tradition, values and established criteria which regulates what is suitable for inclusion. This dissertation argues that jazz does not consist of a single canon and music that exists beyond the canon's boundaries; rather, jazz contains multiple insularities that challenge the canon and vie for the opportunity to overthrow the canon in order to reach canonical status. This dissertation conceptualizes jazz critics as cultural authorities who create or deconstruct insularities through a variety of race, gender and nation projects. It examines the criticism of Leonard Feather, Val Wilmer and Nathaniel Mackey to highlight the numerous ways in which critics engage with multiple insularities.

Wiley Hitchcock Institute for Studies in American Music Conservatory of Music, Brooklyn College of the City University of New York Volume XLII, Number 2 Sprimg 2013 “Live From The East”: Pharoah Sanders in Brooklyn By Jeffrey Taylor, Brooklyn College, CUNY Though for most jazz historians Brooklyn remains in the shadow of Manhattan, two previous articles in this journal have documented a robust tradition that can be traced back as far as performances by The Creole Band at Coney Island in 1915.1 Though often paralleling musical developments across the East River, Brooklyn jazz has also been shaped by the unique dynamic of the borough’s ethnic and racial makeup, as well as the very spe- cial qualities of its many, often insular, neighborhoods.2 The historically black neighborhood of Bedford-Stuyvesant in central Brooklyn, or “Bed-Stuy” as it is more commonly referred to, has long been a center of jazz, with its “Golden Age” of the 1940s and 1950s seeing performances by first-tier jazz musicians, includ- ing Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, and many oth- ers. Though the popular imagination may now see Bed-Stuy primar- ily as a backdrop for Spike Lee movies, it boasts a black presence that goes far back into the 19th century, with the establishment of communities of freedmen in places such as Weeksville—now part of neighboring Crown Heights. With the construction of the A train in the mid-1930s, which connected Bed-Stuy with Harlem, the neigh- borhood became a cultural mecca that rivaled Manhattan’s larger and more famous African American community.
