The NYU Music
Department of Music offers studies in historical musicology,
ethnomusicology, and composition and theory at both the graduate and
undergraduate levels. With its leading research faculty, the Department
grants degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy. The
Department also sponsors a colloquium series, a concert series, musical
ensembles, and symposia/conferences. Our facilities include musical
instrument collections, a computer music studio, a multimedia computer
lab in ethnomusicology, the American Institute for Verdi Studies, and
the Center for Early Music.
The
University is rich in supporting resources, including the Elmer Holmes
Bobst Library, which houses an important collection of music, books,
periodicals, and microfilms of early musical sources. The Avery Fisher
Center in the Bobst Library has a leading collection of videos and
recordings. The Noah Greenberg Collection of Musical Instruments
(containing the collection of the New York Pro Musica Antiqua) forms a
nucleus for the departments ensemble for the performance of early
music, the Collegium Musicum. Likewise, the World Music Ensembles make
use of the Affelder Collection, which contains a growing variety of
instruments from throughout the world.
In
addition to the resources within the University, the New York City area
presents limitless cultural facilities, among them the New York Public
Library, Pierpont Morgan Library, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Schomburg
Center for Research in Black Culture, Center for Traditional Music and
Dance, CityLore, World Music Institute, Archives for Contemporary
Music, and the many performing institutions active in the city.
