Our Master of Arts in Music and Culture offers curious learners a distinctive chance to examine diverse cultural theories, musical concepts, and music's role within culture. This curriculum builds upon multiple musical traditions (classical, contemporary, global) while employing interdisciplinary frameworks such as sociological analysis, critical thought, gender studies, postcolonial perspectives, cultural research, and ethnomusicological methods.
