Do you want to do musicology research? Are you interested in the new challenges in music education? Or would you like to perfect your interpretation of early music, based on historically informed criteria? This master's degree is the only postgraduate degree from a public university in Spain that offers both tracks (research and interpretation) from a cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspective.
Teachers of Musicology, Education Sciences and from the Higher Music Education College of Catalonia (ESMUC), as well as specialised visiting lecturers, will provide you with advanced learning in the aforementioned areas. For the Musicology and Music Education Research track, the aim is to provide students with flexible and cutting-edge research tools and methodologies, and teach content that covers the various aspects of music history, ethnomusicology, and pedagogy and didactics in musical education. The Early Music Interpretation track provides elements, criteria and resources for the improvement of instrumental technique and the interpretation of historical repertoires, through one to one classes, as well as the theoretical and analytical tools necessary to study aspects such as musical notation, documentary sources or an analytical approach.
