Resources for Teaching Women and Music

I chose to teach about the history of women's role in music in the Romantic Period, focusing
on the life of Clara Schumann as an example.

Below are the list of resources I researched:
- Textbook (A History of Western Music)
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clara_Schumann
(This website contains a direct quote from Schumann that reveals her own opinion of women's role in music)
- CD (Norton Anthology of Western Music Vol. 2); contains pieces composed by Clara Schumann
- http://www.southernct.edu/organizations/hcr/2001/nonfiction/equality.htm (article on Clara Schumann; provides a more detailed account of her life and career)
