Pioneer Violin Virtuose in the Early Twentieth CenturyMaud Powell, Marie Hall, and Alma Moodie: A Gendered Re-Evaluation\nAuthor(s): Tatjana Goldberg\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Routledge\nISBN-13: 9780367728748, 978-0367728748\nSynopsis\nTatjana Goldberg reveals the extent to which gender and socially constructed identity influenced female violinists separate but unequal status in a great male-dominated virtuoso lineage by focussing on the few that stood out: the American Maud Powell [tel], Australian-born Alma Moodie [tel], and the British Marie Hall [tel]. Despite breaking down traditional gender-based patriarchal social and cultural norms, becoming celebrated soloists, and greatly contributing towards violin works and the early recording industry (Powell and Hall), they received little historical recognition. Goldberg provides a more complete picture of their artistic achievements and the impact they had on audiences.
