NYT Crossword Puzzle 11-8-21 Complete (contains spoilers)

I pulled out 34D Feel sore: ACHE because that’s me today. Yesterday I played baseball with my old adult league team. I hadn’t thrown a baseball in more than a year, and I hadn’t hit off live pitching in many years. I went 0-2 with a walk and a strikeout. I also made a diving catch in right field. The catch was a great because I caught the ball, but if I’d read the ball off the bat better, it would have been a routine catch and no scrapes.

Theme!

17A Disco: DONNASUMMER.
27A Soul: ARETHAFRANKLIN.
43A Jazz: ELLAFITZGERALD.
58A Country: LORETTALYNN.

Is the theme women singers who are known for these genres? Or am I missing something?
