The Music History & Ethnomusicology Concentration fosters methods for understanding music as sound, practice, historical artifact, and cultural expression. It aims to enhance students' auditory, written, and practical interaction with Stanford's diverse musical offerings. Participants refine a specialized focus—whether historical, ethnomusicological, or thematic—that leads to a Capstone project. This final work may be a written thesis, potentially combined with a lecture-recital or digital presentation. The program equips students for advanced studies in musicology and related humanities disciplines.
