Biography
Sally Macarthur is a senior lecturer in music at the University of Western Sydney. She has researched and written on topics to do with ?new? classical music, women?s music and music in spiritual and cross-cultural contexts. Her recent articles appear in Radical Musicology (2008), Australian Feminist Studies (in press, 2009) and Cultural Studies Review (in press, 2009). Her books include Feminist Aesthetics in Music (Greenwood Press, 2002), a co-edited volume, Intercultural Music: Creation and Interpretation (Australian Music Centre, 2006) and with Cate Poynton, Musics and Feminisms (Australian Music Centre, 1999). Macarthur is currently writing a single-authored monograph entitled Composing and Decomposing Women in Music which offers a feminist-Deleuzian critique of the practices of ?new? (classical) music. It argues for a new theoretical approach that seeks to de-emphasise the individual ego at the heart of musical creation. Macarthur was recognised by the Centre for the Study of Higher Education, Griffith Institute for Higher Education and Queensland University of Technology in 2007 for fostering an interest in research among her undergraduate students. In 2008, she was highly commended as a member of the Music Research Supervisor?s Group for Excellence in Postgraduate Research Training and Supervision in the Vice-Chancellor?s Awards.
