International Women's Day Podcast: Week 4

by Elle Farrell-Kingsley

As we enter the fourth and final week of the series, this podcast covers women in classical music and the perception of femininity.

We continue the Voice Team's International Women's Day special podcast series, as we dig deep into femininity, representation and stigmatised issues. This week, Voice Contributors Ellen Taylor and Rosie Amos dig deep into women in classical music and the perception of femininity - is it considered a weakness?
