Master of Arts in History of Art and History of Music

Program Overview

Study the History of Art and History of Music in equal depth with this joint honours programme.

History of Art

History of Art will introduce you to art from different periods and world cultures.

You will:

  • learn how, and for whom, works of art were made
  • situate artworks within visual and material culture more broadly
  • explore the meanings of works of art and visual culture and the ways they continue to be interpreted

In Years 3 and 4, you will have the opportunity to:

  • specialise in particular aspects of the field
  • develop independent research projects
  • develop a dissertation
  • study abroad (Year 3)

History of Music

In History of Music, you will explore a broad repertoire of music through various contexts, including:

  • aesthetic
  • cultural
  • social
  • political

You will be introduced to a range of issues relating to the production and reception of both popular and western art music.

In Years 3 and 4, you will choose from a diverse range of options and have the opportunity to write a dissertation on a music-related topic.

History of Art and History of Music complement each other:

  • Many ideas and movements are shared across the visual arts and music, and in particular across historical periods.
  • Both subjects benefit from shared methodologies and historical contexts.
