Abstract
The gendering of pitch. In this short essay, I lay out a number of practice-led insights about the gendered perception of the materiality of pitch. The research sits within a wider body of work that applies both feminist and gender theory to voice practice. Theories about the ways in which ‘individuality and the resonances of our gestures are carried in the vocalic bodies we emanate’ are particularly relevant to this discussion about perceptions of difference (Bonenfant 2010, p. 77).
