Post Rigid Repetoires to the Radical Avant Garde
Here's a short essay on dance important to everyone but particularly feminists. It's important because if we look at music only from music theory, or philosophy of aesthetics we miss some valuable insights that the philosophy of aesthetics (for example) got from domains only tangential to our own.

Snippet;
the role of dance advocated for new artistic forms, spaces, and conceptions of the body.

The modern dance movement emerged as a creative response to the domination of regimented, hierarchical, male-controlled ballet.

“Only with the onset of modern dance, when women took over the responsibility both for the creation and execution of choreographies,” Kolb contends, “were they able to evade the dominant male discourse of dance and implement their own aesthetic ideas.”

Modern dance celebrated spontaneity, expression, innovation, and
experimentation that opposed the rigid repertories of ballet.

Also, divine images of the feminine and the prolific
portrayal of femininity in art is at odds with the reality of women‟s typical social and cultural subordination.

Here is a much longer discussion with more history for those with gobs of time.
