Applicant Profile
This Master's program welcomes individuals with and without formal musical training. Those with formal musical training may focus their research on articulating structural, expressive, and/or aesthetic aspects of music with historical, social, or cultural phenomena. Those without formal musical training may focus their work on aspects related to music itself, such as audience studies; production and consumption processes; institutions; power relations; transculturation processes; and anything that allows us to observe music as a historically situated social practice. In both cases, participants will develop an interdisciplinary understanding of music by linking it to history, culture, and society from a Latin American perspective. • Bachelor's degree or equivalent university professional qualification
of at least eight semesters in areas of
knowledge related to the program
