Music Research
Research in Music
Music research at Newcastle University is world-leading and defined by a culture that embraces the full spectrum of musical practice and inquiry.
We're interested in everything. From classical, early, and contemporary music, to popular, folk, and world musics.
Our research is equally diverse, integrating musicology with practice in composition, improvisation, and performance. Much of our research connects with other fields such as technology, media, and philosophy.
We're a welcoming and collaborative research community, powered by our shared passion for music. We believe this work should be shared, so we make our research open to all.
Our work is supported by our exceptional facilities which include a huge collection of musical instruments, equipment, and state-of-the-art studios.
