Music at the University of\nEdinburgh has a long and distinguished history, combining tradition with\ninnovation, and theory with practice. We have a broad view of music, not\nconfined to one kind of musical genre or tradition but engaging with classical\nand popular music, Western and non-Western music, professional and amateur\nmusic-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We think of music as a\nperforming art, a creative art, a subject of scholarly and scientific study, a\nsite of technological innovation, and a practice with implications for many\naspects of human life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Situated in the heart of the\nold city of Edinburgh, Music enjoys the resources of two extraordinary historic\nconcert halls, unique collections of historical musical instruments and a\nworld-class music library, as well as well-equipped audio studios and IT\nfacilities. There is a lively musical life across all areas and genres of\nmusic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Learning and teaching is a\nmix of seminars, supervised individual research, and one-to-one tutorials. Our\nregular Music Research Seminars are just one of many opportunities to hear and\ndiscuss current ideas from leading local and international researchers and\nmusicians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are part of the creative\nenvironment of Edinburgh College of Art, as well as being linked to\nintellectual strands across the university. We are also strongly engaged with\nthe local community, for example through our Music in the Community programme\nand its public events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We encourage our students to\ndevelop a thoughtful, critical and creative response to music through\nintellectual curiosity and practical engagement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
