Music Research Forum

Our weekly research fora involve a wide range of internationally esteemed invited lecturers and musicians, alongside our academic staff, postdoctoral colleagues, and our large cohort of postgraduate students, as well as interested undergraduates, and colleagues from across the University and our partner institutions.

While some sessions take the form of traditional seminars on specialist topics, many sessions also include short presentations or position papers from invited speakers from all over the world, which act as catalysts to open up broader roundtable discussions involving staff and postgraduate students working on related topics in our department's core research areas.

Plenary discussions involving all participants then close the fora, ensuring lively debate that stimulates research networking and the development of new collaborations and research relationships.
