Course Description

Our MusM Music (Musicology) course offers a solid master’s-level foundation in musicology.

You will be able to choose units and a dissertation/critical edition topic that best matches your special interests and aspirations. The taught units encompass a wide range of topics and approaches, from musicology as cultural history, through musicology and the body, source studies and performance practice, to postcolonial theory and postmodernism.

Seminars allow for close collaboration between lecturers and students, with ample opportunity for you to present your own work and receive individual feedback. Discussion and debate forms an important part of most course units.

You can also choose to take a placement unit where you will spend a minimum of 20 days over a period of up to 12 weeks with an arts and cultural organisation, business or service provider to gain valuable workplace experience.

Entry Requirements

Applicants should hold a First or Upper Second Class Honours degree, or its overseas equivalent, in a relevant subject (normally Music, or with music as a substantial component of the programme). In exceptional circumstances we may consider appropriate professional experience as an alternative route to entry.
