Musicology is the study of music in its cultural, social, historical and stylistic contexts.

It’s about the way that music 'works'. And not just notes on a page or sounds in a recording. Music also affects individual actions, social behaviour and expression in both Western and non-Western societies.

Our Bachelor of Music (Musicology) takes your contextual knowledge of music to the next level. You will:

• explore different approaches to music research
• gain keen aural and analytical skills
• develop high-level understandings of music history and repertoire
• analyse live and recorded music
• build confidence in oral and written communication.

You can also pursue a wide range of studies in other areas. If you’re interested in performance you can take ensemble classes subject to audition.
