Impulses for musicology
Heidelberg University, the Mannheim University of Music and Performing Arts and the Heidelberg Academy of Sciences and Humanities have set up a research center to further develop university teaching in the field of musicology, for example in the area of digital editions.
The "Court - Music - City" research center began its work at the start of the year. Under the umbrella of the joint institution, musicologists will investigate the question of how courtly and urban music developed and influenced each other in southwest Germany.
A central component of the activities is also the further development of university teaching in the field of musicology, for example in the area of digital editions. The Schwetzingen-based center is headed by Christiane Wiesenfeldt (Heidelberg) and Panja Mücke (Mannheim).
