In order to teach concepts such as meter and rhythm, musical form, harmonic progressions, and more, music instructors often look to the most famous examples from the established musical canon&#8211;works by dead, white, male composers. Websites like Music by Women seek to normalize the presence of women composers in the classroom not only as part of the music history curriculum, but also by making it easier to find such examples to teach music theory concepts.
