We cannot understand the realm of artistic creation without the work of women. Although throughout history many of them have been silenced and even forgotten, the way forward (besides recovering our historical past and rewarding the trajectory of all forgotten women artists) is one that makes it possible to reach the beginning of equality gender-generic in addition to offering a greater number of opportunities, it can at the same time address the social and cultural problem with the objective of not repeating the same situation so disfavouring to the female gender.

For many centuries, the practice of music education has been a fundamentally feminine practice. However, the leaders in this sector are men. In activities that demand leadership, they tend to have a greater male presence. Thus, while women are the majority directing choirs or teaching in a school, those who lead large orchestral groups are men.

Keywords : women; music; leadership; history; gender.
