About this exposition

Western society is going through substantial changes regarding political, social and sexual inequalities. Since the beginning of the 19th century, several revolutionary and avant-garde movements claim for a society based on justice and equality. Women have been considered very early as victims of oppression and invisibilities: therefore, they tend to gain a better place in the society, including for jobs which have always been seen as masculine jobs. Music is no exception to the rule. However, it may appear that music is a field where women have still battles to lead. For example, the global movements for human rights are today fighting for LBTIQ++ people acceptance and freedom; concerning music, the main fight is not yet for this cause, but still for women acceptance. This paper will try and see how difficult it can be for women to be considered equal to men in orchestras: the interviews that have been collected might even show how some male musicians do not accept that a woman could be qualified enough, or even talented enough, to do the same job as them. Our purpose is not to show that music is a particularly backward field; on the contrary, it may appear as one of the leaders of women empowerment.
