Music and Gender on the Internet = MUGI is a freely accessible research and publication platform on the Internet. It was founded 20 years ago by Beatrix Borchard at the Hamburg University of Music and Drama with the aim of advancing women's and gender studies in musicology in Europe, networking them and making them accessible to a broad public. Using the principle of "writing gaps" (Borchard) as a methodological basis, a gender-sensitive historiography of music as a history of cultural action was created. What was a pioneering act at the time, also in relation to the possibilities of the Internet, is now good practice and a necessity for the communication of scientifically sound research and reflection.
Nina Noeske (since 2015) and Silke Wenzel (since 2022) are now co-editors. Since 2022, the University of Music FRANZ LISZT Weimar has also been an institutional cooperation partner. As part of a long-standing internationalization effort, the first external editorial office was founded in Luxembourg in the same year. Others will follow.
Since 2005, MUGI has been continuously funded by the Mariann Steegmann Foundation, which supports numerous academic projects in the field of music and gender.
On 8 June, MUGI celebrates its anniversary at the University of Music FRANZ LISZT Weimar. MUGI celebrates its twentieth anniversary at the HfMT Hamburg on June 8 with a festive day under the motto:
