From Our Eyes and Ears: Writings by Musicians of Color

This narrative anthology centers writings by musicians of color from various perspectives who chose to pursue music as a career path in the western classical music field. These writings speak to how being a person of color within this field has affected them and shine a light on the prejudice, stigmas, and stereotypes facing musicians of color in the field. Many musicians of color face discrimination, bias, and prejudice at some point during their time within their careers, but this is not fully known or acknowledged by the field at large. The featured writings show that the challenges musicians of color face are common and systemic. With this anthology, more awareness is brought to what musicians of color face through first-hand accounts with the hope to make the western classical music field a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
