Es dentro de esta dinámica social que emerge la figura creativa de Alejandro García Villalón Vi...
In 1945, Norman Cazden published a groundbreaking article in the literature on consonance perception. In this seminal work, Cazden combined historical, musicological, and theoretical arguments to assert that the Pythagorean approach to consonance, based on integer ratios, lacked substantiation. Recent empirical evidence has bolstered Cazden’s persp...

The conventional methods used to measure and model the dynamics of a piano keystroke typically involve applying force at the key front using mechanical excitation. However, the influence of the actuator mass on the resulting motion and force profile has never been addressed. Conversely, within the realm of piano technique, mechanical excitation occ...
Topic theory in musicology examines how musical elements and structures convey emotions or topics in music. Despite its potential to provide a framework for understanding musical expression, topic theory has rarely been applied to piano pedagogy. This study aimed to explore participants’ perceptions of Raymond Monelle’s topic theory, specifically t...
Article about the contribution of English musicologist Philip Tagg (1944-2024) to
studies around popular music. Through printed and audiovisual sources, we exemplify the author’s musematic method of musical analysis, with three main concepts: analized object, inter-objective comparative material and fields of paramusical connotation. We focuses on...

Program Book of the Annual Meeting 2024 of the American Musicological Society (November, 14-17 November, 2024, Chicago, IL, USA).
From the very beginning, phenomenology met with sound inquiry. Not only the relationship between Husserl and Stumpf, whose investigations influenced numerous philosophers and twenty-century trends, but a whole musicological thread (Mersmann, Eimert, Güldenstein, Bekker) referred to phenomenology during the twenties and following decades (Besseler,...
In 1979, Sebastián Arroyo revealed “the secrets of the water and the land” to Orlando Fals Borda, who from then on began to speak of the culture of the “amphibious man”. This analogy spread throughout the Depresión Momposina (Momposina Depression) and was used both by its inhabitants and by researchers from various disciplines, including musicology...
Reflecting on the relevance of music genres today more than ever requires a circular relationship between theoretical thinking, corporate strategies and empirical inquiry. For the latter, digital tools like the APIs released by platforms, the metadata they provide, and the tools used to analyse and aggregate them, become key resources for research....
The present paper entitled Preserving Literary Heritage Through Orality and Music: A Study of Ganga Sati’s Bhajans offers a unique window into the confluence of literary heritage and musical tradition, specifically within the context of Gujarati Folk music. The present study explores her bhajans from 3 different angles i.e. musicology, orality and...
According to musicologist Christopher Small, the treatment of music in musicology carries fundamentally flawed historical premises. Instead of focusing on music through art „objects“, anything understood as „music“ should be examined on the grounds of its spatiotemporal appearance, as a social activity of musicking and the unfolding event. The emph...

In this article, applied musicology is discussed in the context of research on incidental music in Serbia—a task which, to my knowledge, has not been undertaken so far. In recent years, the body of publications on applied musicology has notably expanded, resulting in a number of important articles and a landmark collective monograph. This, in turn,...
This article aims to reveal how newspaper archives can support musical history research by providing an important tool for developing and covering themes focused by Brazilian musicology. The presence of the classical guitar in Rio de Janeiro is highlighted beginning in the 1840s in the hands of foreign artists, who fostered the development of the c...
The concept of the Vienna School of Comparative Musicology, later renamed as Vienna School of Comparative-Systematic Musicology, plays an important role in received historical accounts of musicology in twentieth-century Austria (used as shorthand for the various political entities to which the territory of post-World War II Austria belonged). The c...

This paper reflects on the existence or absence of Latin American musicology as a unified field. Firstly, it shows that specialists tend to characterize it by the scarcity of resources, its late appearance, and its significant gaps in terms of knowledge. Then, it argues that, without prejudice to their partial validity, these beliefs imply devaluin...
En el título escogido para el congreso de 2024 se juega con la amplitud de campos semánticos y resonancias de las palabras «historia» y «conexión»: «Historia», entendida como la disciplina que sirve de referente a buena parte de nuestra actividad investigadora; e «Historias», en plural, dada la riqueza y diversidad de ramas y paradigmas que en la a...
In 2023 the music librarian at the WHBell Music Library, Engela Britz-Glanville, discovered that the library holds a significant collection of concert programmes.

This paper regards internet users who "convene" in moderated groups according to a common interest, social attachment, or other multiple intersected connections as an "imagined" community that surfaces on a social networking platform. The validity of the community, especially when being of an ethnographer's interest, is argued through a documentati...
The existence of polyphonic forms within the liturgical music of the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches appears to be closely related to the domain of ecumenical dialogue.

Renowned for its 400-year-old Ottoman/Turkish/Armenian past and produced by “America's oldest family-run business,” the Zildjian cymbal is paradoxically rendered an unremarkable “humble object” in its assumed inclusion in orchestras and bands around the world. Tracing the lineages of the Zildjians and their cymbals through historical documentation,...

Recently, scholars have paid increased attention to affect as a structuring principle of political life, aesthetic engagement, cultural practice, and social formation (Ahmed 2010, Brown et al. 2019, Lutz 2017, Neuman 2007, Papoulias and Callard 2010, Sointu 2016, Thrift 2004, 2016). Inspired by Gilles Deleuze’s (1988), Baruch Spinoza’s (2002), and...
Deemed by the Romantics as the greatest work of art, Antigone is still performed two millennia after its premiere. Sophocles’ work inspired many composers and Freud’s psychoanalysis. Furthermore, Mendelssohn’s Antigone much likely influenced Freud when the latter coined the term Oedipus complex, especially when we consider Freud’s dejudaization and...

An attractive goal in the study of Gregorian chant melodies is reconstructing unobserved melodies as they may have been transmitted along the history of chant, especially as early chant notation does not capture pitch exactly. We propose doing this computationally using Ancestral State Reconstruction (ASR) over phylogenetic trees. Bayesian phylogen...
The legacy of Arnold Schoenberg's thought and work shifted the manner that theorists and composers understood music. As the major proponent of the modern period of music, Schoenberg defended the interaction between aesthetics and technology, and his twelve-tone technique expressed the thinker's devotion to freedom in composition. This iconoclast st...
El villancico es un género que ha suscitado un creciente interés en la musicología hispanoamericana. Esto se debe, en gran medida, a la revisión de archivos y repositorios a lo largo de América Hispana, pues el villancico fue un género trabajado con ahínco por maestros de capilla de la región. Los numerosos ejemplos encontrados dan cuenta de la ace...

Sólo uno de ellos, el No 7, ha sido parcialmente estu...
Scholarship in the past century had pushed works by Sergei Bortkiewicz into oblivion due to the overcast shadow of the more popular late-Romantic composers, resulting in an inadequate representation of his composition's artistic merits.
