Course description
Musicology looks at music and all associated phenomena from historical, cultural studies, social, computer science and scientific viewpoints.
Research and teaching at the institute in Cologne focuses on music from around the world in its cultural and social context and involves the study of the theory, aesthetics and reception of musical works and practices. Historical research focuses on music cultures from the past and compares them to contemporary music cultures, while ethnological research focuses on modern music cultures and their relationship to one another.
The innovative tendencies found in the music of today are also studied intensively, with a special focus on electroacoustic compositions, so that all areas of contemporary music (jazz, pop, folk, modern music, etc.) are covered.
Musical behaviour and experiences are studied from a cognitive, neuroscience and technological perspective.
