Women Musicians and Lute Pedagogy in Early Modern England: A Historical and Practice-Based Investigation

我的研究将调查女琵琶学生如何影响琵琶音乐的发展和它的技术在伊丽莎白和早期詹姆士一世的英格兰。这将涉及分析女性创作和拥有的手稿，特别是追踪在多个来源中幸存的作品的变化。这将显示这些来源的影响，并恢复女性音乐活动在历史话语中的代理地位。此外，我将参与基于实践的研究，通过使用各种琵琶大小，技术和从这项研究中获得的表演信息来演奏这段音乐，所有这些都将被录音和分享，为我的最后独奏做准备。

My research will investigate how female lute students influenced the development of lute music and itstechnique during Elizabethan and early Jacobean England. This will involve analysing manuscripts createdand owned by women, particularly tracing variations in pieces that survive in multiple sources. This willshow the influence of these sources and restore the agency of women's musical activities in historicaldiscourses. Additionally, I will engage with practice-based research by performing this music using variouslute sizes, techniques, and performance information derived from this research, all of which will be audiovisuallydocumented and shared in preparation for my final recital.
