Although scholars have long been aware of the crucial roles that gender
plays in music, and vice versa, the contributors to this volume are among
the first to systematically examine the interactions between the two. This
book is also the first to explore the diverse, yet often strikingly similar,
musics of the areas bordering the Mediterranean from comparative
anthropological perspectives.

>From Spanish flamenco to Algerian raï, Greek rebetika to Turkish pop music,
Sephardi and Berber songs to Egyptian belly dancers, the contributors cover
an exceedingly wide range of geographic and musical territories. Individual
essays examine musical behavior as representation, assertion, and sometimes
transgression of gender identities; compare men's and women's roles in
specific musical practices and their historical evolution; and explore how
music and gender relate to such issues as ethnicity, nationality, and
religion. Anyone studying the musics or cultures of the Mediterranean, or
more generally the relations between gender and the arts, will welcome this
book.
