MCGY1020: Musicology Workshop 2
2024 unit information
Building on Musicology Workshop 1, this unit provides a forum for discussion of more developed musicological work, and the opportunity to further broaden your perspective on the discipline. Many activities are built around the Conservatorium's fortnightly Musicology Colloquium Series lectures, while other class activities explore areas such as research and writing skills, music criticism, controversies in recent music literature, visits to local libraries or archives, and conference attendance and reporting. Students are expected occasionally to attend other musicological activities such as the Conservatorium's Alfred Hook lecture series. During classes students also have the opportunity to present and gain feedback on their own research topics.
