Abstract

Research done by the Institute for Composer Diversity shows that music written by women makes up a minority of classical music programming in the United States. This study looks at how Utah compares to the rest of the nation by collecting data on Utah Symphony, Utah Opera, and Ballet West. It also speculates on some potential reasons for the low numbers in Utah based on trends and previous research.
