Last week, I was able to attend the 46th Musicological Society of Australia (MSA) conference in Adelaide. This is one of Australia’s two largest music conferences, the other being the Association for the Study of Popular Music (IASPM). This is, then, the place to be to see what current topics are being researched in Australian music studies.
In this post, I discuss musicology in Australia and the sorts of research currently being done in this area.
