  1. The recent mention of Guillaume de Machaut by @scholar_farmer in her new #introduction reminded me of this album recorded by David Munrow and The Early Music Consort of London in the seventies:

    I'm neither #musicologist nor #medievalist, but have enjoyed this music for decades.

    In addition, I still mourn the untimely death of David Munrow.

  2. Migrating my account, so here's a new #introduction :-)

    I’m a #musicologist and #medievalist, an early-morning writer, woods-walker, gardener, birder, and habitual generalist who finds the world interesting.

    My research centers on women’s religious communities in the later Middle Ages and early modern period: including music, sound and memory, plus the messy evidence of how people actually used their #books and #manuscripts. (I'm currently writing on the sisters of Thalbach in Bregenz: not-quite-nuns, they appear first as beguines and later as Franciscan tertiaries.) #nuntastic

    There’s a lot of Brahms on my playlist, and Machaut (of course), and Barbara Strozzi, and even some #Bardcore.

    I post research-in-progress and opine about my #garden (why are the rabbits INSIDE the fence?) and about the beauty around us (#sunrise is my favorite time of day).

  3. So, this is Iceland, huh? Tolerant Iceland? Ray are you done with your guitar yet?

    "#Iceland is a nation that has always known how to keep its stories alive, from the medieval sagas to the living oral traditions that shaped its literature and language. But its more recent #history of #Jewish exile has gone largely untold for nearly a century until now — as #scholars have worked both to recover the #music that #Nazi persecution scattered across the globe and reconstruct an #Icelandic #musical history that offers a painful reminder of the country’s #Holocaust history.

    The #musicians’ #story is the subject of a newly #translated #book, “Music at World’s End: Three Refugee Musicians from Nazi #Germany and Their Contribution to Iceland’s Music Life,” by #Icelandic #musicologist #ÁrniHeimirIngólfsson. It was #published in #English this year by #SUNYPress following the Icelandic edition in 2024.

    The #book reconstructs the three refugees’ individual pathways to Iceland."

  5. I had never seen this video of #Prince the #musicologist performing at the 36th NAACP Image Awards in 2005 until it just appeared in my YT feed. Wow, what a musical journey, I particularly love his head nod to #SlyAndTheFamilyStone and #Santana at the end.

  6. In commemoration of the 125th anniversary of the birth of researcher Yang Yin-liu
    Yang Yin-liu (1899~1984), courtesy name Liang-qing, art name Er-zhuang, Qing-ru, was a Chinese musicologist and the founder of Chinese ethnomusicology. He recorded and arranged traditional Chinese music, wrote hundreds of monographs and papers, and researched the songs of Jiang Kui of Song Dynasty, compiled a number of folk music collections, and made great contributions to the preservation and development of Chinese ethnic music.

    紀念楊陰瀏研究員誕辰125週年
    楊蔭瀏(1899年11月10日~1984年2月25日),字亮卿,號二壮,又號清如,中國音樂學家,中國民族音樂學的奠基人,曾採錄整理中國傳統音樂,編著《中國古典音樂史稿》《工尺譜淺說》等專著和論文,研究宋代姜夔的歌曲,編著多種民間音樂曲集,對中國民族音樂的保存和發展做出了很大的貢獻。

  7. Just saw this sad news, in memory of Prof. Du Ya-xiong 🕯️
    Mr. Du Ya-xiong was an outstanding musicologist in China. He researched and organised Chinese ethnic music theory and ethnic music, filling in many academic gaps. In addition, he also participated in the translation of foreign language monographs such as Twentieth-Century Harmony, and promoted the Chineseisation of the “Kodály Method”. He has left many valuable achievements for the music field.

    剛看見這條悲痛的消息,緬懷杜亞雄教授🕯️
    杜亞雄先生是中國傑出的音樂學家,他研究和整理了中國民族樂理及民族音樂,填補了許多學術上的空白。除此之外,他還參與翻譯了《二十世紀和聲學》等外語專著,推動「柯大宜教學法」中國化。為音樂界留下了諸多寶貴成果。

  8. Happy to share that I’ve just been notified that two of my albums, "Medievalisms" and "Japanese Sea Musics", are now also available on the French version of Apple Music! 😊 (Hopefully, my first album, "HomeStrung" will also be added soon.)

    Let me know what you think! 🌊🎼

  9. @J12t @mmasnick I’m in with you. We actually had chances to learn about a new class of art, the #transform, innumerable times. For example with Hip-Hop music, and EDM.

    But we keep ignoring the signs, shoehorning everything into the ”original artist” conception and rubberbanding back to the old ownership concepts.

    I’m a #musicologist, and I’ve read so many good theories that never get out of libraries on this problem..

  10. #introductions:

    I’m a #musicologist and #medievalist, an early morning writer and a regular woods-walker, and a generalist in the classroom (#Shakespeare; #pandemics). I research women’s monastic communities, especially their libraries. I’m currently focused on the Tertiaries of Thalbach in #Bregenz, Austria, with a side-tour to the #chaplains of the city. I’ve published on women as scribes and on historiography, but a lot of my current engagement is with German prayer-books.

  11. But there's a life (and love) for the #violadamore even outside the (relative) niche of #Baroque music... Like the violin or viola, it's a #fretless instrument, which means that beyond the standards of #Western #music, it can easily play any mode or scale such as #Oriental ones. #Tunisian #musician and #musicologist Jasser Haj Youssef, for example, has "imported" the viola d'amore to the art of the #maqâm, using the sympathetic strings to create a richer, deeper sound:

  12. No big surprise - the Digital Humanities crowd on Mastodon has their stuff together!!! Now I'm looking to connect with the Musicology and Ethnomusicology academic-types. Where are you hiding? #DigitalHumanities #Ethnomusicology #Musicology #ethnomusicologist #musicologist #Academic #HidingInPlainSight

  13. Looking to connect with musicology, music theory, sound studies, folks (academics, students, anyone interested really!)

    Wondering what hashtags to use?

    #musicology #music #musicologist #soundstudies #musichistory #musictheory #musicanalysis #classicalmusic #classical

  14. Still searching on mastodon for #musicians, #guitarists, #classicalguitar enthusiasts, #nornsshield or #monome users, #soundscape and #fieldrecording makers, #homestudio people, #antifascist friends and #musicologist. I don't tröt a lot, but i like beeing connected. Have a nice friday, and take care

  15. Time for a new #introduction!

    I'm a classical #mezzosoprano and #musicologist by training. I listen to #classicalmusic, #metal (mostly progressive), #ebm and a random assortment of other stuff.

    I'm a regular #fawm participant, and I compose more or less #experimental #electronic music in #SuperCollider. I do #livestream s where I explore :sccube: concepts and compose out loud.

    I sing #choralmusic (classical and jazz) and play #guitar. Will occasionally infodump on #musictheory.
