Research Center for Music and Gender

Since November 2006, after a two-year planning phase, Susanne Rode-Breymann has headed the Music and Gender Research Center ( fmg ) at the Hanover University of Music and Drama . As a scientific forum, this research facility offers the opportunity to try out new and unfamiliar perspectives on musical cultures in the past and present. In addition to exploring the lives and works of previously unjustifiably neglected composers and interpreters, overall cultural and societal processes are inevitably the focus of attention: The aim is to scientifically penetrate the close intermeshing of musical production, reception, interpretation and socio-cultural To reflect on conditions methodically - and to do so without abandoning the tried and tested tools of musicology. The fmg provides capacities and networking options for this. The fmg is based on a framework agreement between HMTH and the Mariann Steegmann Foundation for the promotion of women in art and music.

The fmg has the task of promoting gender research in musicology. The foundation aims to support musicological and artistic activities, in particular by opening up and deepening academic relationships in the university and college sector, by exchanging research and working materials and by collaborating on suitable projects.
