This program is for students interested in developing original research projects that bridge traditional methodologies with new critical and/or digital approaches in musicology. The area’s humanistic orientation emphasizes the importance of political, social, and cultural history, while also encouraging students to hone their skills in musical analysis, their sensitivity to different styles and performance, and their awareness of issues in aesthetics.
