Reflecting on the Work of Gender Relations in New Music : Institutional Critique and Activist Strategies
(2023) p.266-275- Abstract
- This chapter gives an overview of key actions by the activist group Gender Relations in New Music, which advocates for increased gender equality and intersectional diversification in contemporary classical music (CCM). The chapter describes this particular group’s activities, which have included creating statistics, organizing events, protesting actions, and connecting interested people in this still disparate area of CCM. Through a retrospective analysis of these actions collectively, the article argues that strategies of relationality and coalition-building have made GRiNM’s critiques of CCM institutions unique, and have gradually both adapted themselves and informed the evolving discourse around the diversification of contemporary music.
