Abstract The collection of articles in TEMPO 292 provides the opportunity to examine recent research and approaches towards gender diversity in new music from an Australian perspective. The otherwise under-recognised contributions to the development of music by women and gender-diverse artists is spotlighted through academic research, industry strategies and creative approaches to music-making. Topics explored include artistic research in free improvisation, performance analysis and performativity, presented together with research findings drawn from mentorship programmes for female composers, gender diversity strategies in tertiary music education and the positive impacts of content targets in programming. Together these articles offer a wide range of perspectives on changing creation and performance practices, listening practices and audience attitudes to music in the twenty-first century. Contributors include leading scholar-performers active at the forefront of contemporary music in Australia, artists from the UK and USA, as well as national radio programmers and not-for-profit arts organisations.
