With popular images as hearth keepers and tradition bearers, women have been a crucial humanizing symbol of the Uzbek nation since the Soviet era. Examining Uzbekistan&#8217;s national project through an ethnomusicological lens, it is possible to see the commonalities between Soviet-era women&#8217;s liberation movements and Uzbekistan&#8217;s post-independence era plan to consolidate and publicize a cogent national identity. Interviews with women who have come to positions of power in Uzbek musical institutions (conservatory faculty, deans, orchestra conductors, and opera directors) draw out the diversity of visions of the Uzbek nation and the many ways that women take to the stage in support of them. Soviet projects that brought women onto concert stages have created an impressive legacy of women&#8217;s music that allows female professional musicians to shape the sound of nationalism in contemporary Uzbek musical life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"lastp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.trumba.com\/i\/DgCeZLw8nDBwyODczK7pO0Ig.jpg\" width=\"100\" height=\"114\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/music.ucsc.edu\/faculty\/tanya-merchant\"><strong>Tanya Merchant<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is an Associate Professor of Music and ethnomusicologist on the music faculty of the University of California, Santa Cruz.
