This article builds on research about gender in music practice, concerned with skewed musical canons, ratios and quotas of gender representation, unfair treatment and power dynamics, and the exclusionary enmeshment with music technologies. The aim is to critically discuss what ‘gender’ is understood to be, how it has been studied and how gendered power has been challenged, in order to suggest new routes for research on gender and music practice. While we count ourselves among the scholars working in the field and critically investigate our own work as well as that of others, the article addresses some additional concerns to those of previous studies by examining how gender is ontologically constructed in these studies, how intersectional approaches can enrich analyses of gender in music practice and how the material dimensions of music practice can be actively addressed. The conclusions outline suggestions for broadening research in gender and music practice.

扩大性别和音乐实践的研究

本文建立在关于音乐实践中性别的研究的基础上，关注倾斜的音乐经典、性别代表的比例和配额、不公平的待遇和权力动态，以及与音乐技术的排他性纠缠。目的是批判性地讨论什么是“性别”，它是如何被研究的，以及性别权力如何受到挑战，以便为性别和音乐实践的研究提出新的路线。虽然我们将自己视为在该领域工作的学者并批判性地调查我们自己的工作以及其他人的工作，但本文通过研究这些研究中性别是如何在本体论上构建的，解决了先前研究的一些额外问题，交叉方法如何丰富音乐实践中的性别分析，以及如何积极解决音乐实践的物质维度。结论概述了扩大性别和音乐实践研究的建议。
