Laboratory I 3106-PRAC-I
The main subject of the course is to familiarize students with the ethnomusicologist's workshop in its various aspects: from scientific research (field documentation, archival research, work on collections of instruments, organization and development of collections) to animation of musical life (music criticism, educational and popularizing activities). In each subsequent year, the emphasis is placed on a different aspect.
An important element is learning about contemporary ethnomusicological literature and other scientific disciplines whose concepts and methods of work are used in ethnomusicological research selected in accordance with the main subject of interest in a given year and with the interests of the participants.
