For centuries, women have organized social gatherings known as 'salons', which have served as sites of women's creativity in the arts, sciences, and letters – especially music. Through case studies ranging across Europe, the Americas, North Africa, and the Ottoman Empire, this volume foregrounds women's musicianship in cross-cultural perspective.
