Project description
Transforming music studies through interdisciplinary collaboration
The fragmented landscape of music studies hinders interdisciplinary collaboration and the advancement of music theory research. In this context, the EU-funded MusicAnalytica project will mobilise talented individuals and cultivate a radical reconfiguration within the field. Spearheaded by renowned music theorist Richard Cohn, the project assembles an exceptional international team dedicated to bridging gaps between diverse methodologies in music computation, cognitive sciences and anthropology. Structured around 12 work packages, MusicAnalytica aims to enhance research capacity, initiate institutional reforms at the University of Coimbra and promote gender balance and citizen science. By fostering collaboration the project aspires to enrich the cultural heritage and creative sectors across Europe.
Objective
MusicAnalytica aims to mobilise and attract talents, whose interconnected work will foster a radical reconfiguration in music studies and music theory research in particular, towards fulfilling the potential of cultural heritage, arts, and cultural and creative sectors. It will emerge from the intersecting work of a carefully planned and exceptional international team of music researchers committed to bridge and cope with the challenges of a fragmentary research landscape of distinct disciplinary paradigms and methodologies targeting music, and including music theory and musicology studies, music computation and mathematics, music cognitive- and neurosciences, and music anthropology.The team will be led by ERA-Chair Holder and world-prominent music theorist Richard Cohn, whose institutional leadership at the Univ. of Chicago and Yale have been on the forefront of impacting interdisciplinary conceptual innovations in the field, and will bring an institutional reform at the Univ. of Coimbra.
The project is structured in 12 Work Packages: Project management 1,2, ERA Chair Team recruitment; Widening of scientific participation and cooperation 1,2; Widening of societal participation and cooperation 1,2; Advanced training programs 1,2; Recruitment of permanent team; and D & E & C of results 1,2. MusicAnalytica will have five outcomes and impacts: the increase in quality and capacity of music R&I talents; the institutional reform at Univ. Coimbra; the creation of a reconfigured theoretical interdiscipline in music studies; the mitigation of the EU divide Widening/non-Widening in music studies; to better communication and contribute to the knowledge-based economy and society, promoting gender balance and citizen science.
