Temporary exhibition

Women in Montreal's Music Industry

from Feb 1, 2024 to Feb 28, 2025
Musée des ondes Emile Berliner

The MOEB searched its archives for meaningful objects, documents and life stories of women. Throughout the history of the recording industry in Montreal as elsewhere, women have been overshadowed by men, particularly during the first fifty years of music reproduction. Part of our treasure includes stories about women organizing work in the factories where records were made, about the great talents welcomed and nurtured by the industry's epicenter, Montreal!

Montreal shows its love for music. When it comes to singers, female faces quickly come to mind. But did women have other roles in Montreal's music industry? In the Musée des ondes Emile Berliner we discovered that women worked in all the music companies and in all the factories. There were many of them, but they remained largely anonymous. We invite you to discover the enormous importance of “Women in the Montreal Music Industry” through this exhibition.
