Public Musicology

Public Musicology is an approach that studies music by focusing on its role and impact within society, culture, and public life. It seeks to make music scholarship accessible and relevant to broader audiences outside academic settings, often engaging with communities, media, and public institutions. By emphasizing dialogue, participation, and social context, public musicology aims to deepen understanding of how music influences identity, politics, and everyday experiences, fostering a more inclusive and understanding relationship between music scholars and the public.
