This course aims to develop knowledge of music as a performing art form. We consider the ramifications of applied musical knowledge in performance practice in contemporary and historical contexts. Through case studies, a variety of approaches to study performance practice are introduced, such as early recordings, archival research, manuscript studies, computational analysis, organology, and iconography.

This course will examine historical and contemporary performance practice. The practice of conducting and directing musical ensembles will take further the concept of application of musical knowledge into the situation of performance. Musical analysis and its influence on performance techniques will form an important component part of the course.
