About WiM - Introduction
Introduction | History

annie whitehead playing a tromboneWomen in Music is a national membership organisation that celebrates women's music making across all genres of music. We raise awareness of gender issues in music and support women musicians in their professional development.

A recent addition to our website is a Resources section. Here you will find a useful Reading List, and also our annual Proms Report, which looks at the numbers of women composers included in the programming of the Proms. (Count on one hand!)

If you are a women musician, or want to know more about women's music-making in the UK, have a look at the What's On section, which features a wide variety of upcoming musical performances. You can add an event to the listings by filling in an online form.

If you are a composer, why not check out Competitions and Opportunities? This section is regularly updated with details of a variety of opportunities for you to create profile for your work.
