We invite work on gender and sexuality, transgender/transsexual, bisexual, lesbian and/or gay studies that intersects with music history, culture, theory and/or performance. Along with essays and reviews (of books, recordings and performances), we also welcome news items, announcements of conferences, concerts and workshops, special bibliographies, syllabi, suggestions, and letters. For more information, see our website http://glsg-ams.press.uiuc.edu.

The GLSG is a recognized special-interest group of the AMS (American Musicological Society). Our objectives include promoting communication among lesbian and gay music scholars, increasing awareness of issues in sexuality and music in the academic community, and establishing a forum for the presentation of lesbian and gay music studies. We also intend to provide an environment in which to examine the process of coming out in academia, and to contribute to a positive political climate for gay and lesbian affirmative action and curricula.
