Notas del episodio
For centuries, women have made music, shaped sound and pushed artistic boundaries, yet history has often remembered their bodies, relationships and reputations more readily than their genius.
From India’s tawaifs and pioneers such as Jaddan Bai and Gauhar Jaan to Clara Schumann, Sylvia Robinson and the women transforming music production today, this episode explores how female creativity has been marginalized, appropriated and erased.
Why is genius so easily attributed to men while women are still judged by what they wear, who they love and how they look?
A journey through music, misogyny, power and reclamation, and a reminder that women weren't merely asking for a seat at music’s table. They helped build it.
