Episode #46 Women In Music
Today The Big Note discusses some amazing and important Women in Music. The role of Women in all walks of life has often been overlooked or unrecognized, and not surprisingly this is often the case in the world of Music. From Clara Josephine Schumann to Sissieretta Jones to Zitkála-Šá to Sister Rosetta Tharpe to Mary Lou Williams to playing some amazing music by Women in Music from here and overseas. Here’s just some (but not all by any means) amazing Australian women in music : Helen Reddy, Tina Arena, Wendy Matthews, Kate Ceberano, Renée Geyer, Kasey Chambers, Rebecca Barnard, Missy Higgins, Sia, Sarah Blasko, Katie Noonan, Courtney Barnett, Thelma Plum, Jessica Mauboy, Alex the Astronaut, Adalita (Magic Dirt), Julia Stone (Angus & Julia Stone), Vika & Linda Bull, Chrissy Amphlett (Divinyls), Sarah Aarons, Lindy Morrison (The Go-Betweens), Deborah Conway, Iggy Azalea, Christine Anu, Alison Wonderland, Tkay Maidza and Sampa The Great.
