This course aims to guide students in rethinking "music" from a contemporary musicological perspective, understanding it as a cultural practice that is produced, perceived, and interpreted. Moving beyond traditional work-centered approaches, the course combines historical musicology, ethnomusicology, and critical theory to explore how music generates meaning within social structures, technological media, bodily experience, and power relations. Through engagement with key theoretical texts—such as studies on musical rhetoric, soundscape theory, and the material turn—as well as analysis of concrete case studies spanning art music, popular music, and everyday sound practices, students will acquire a range of musicological research methods while reflecting on the assumptions underlying listening, analysis, and writing. The course encourages students to integrate theory with their own research interests or practical experience, cultivating critical listening skills and interdisciplinary thinking.

I graduated from the Gnessin School of Music in Moscow and later earned both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Solo Performance at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts in Switzerland. As a performer, I’ve had the honor of playing in some of Europe’s leading concert halls, including the Wiener Musikverein in Austria, the Stadtcasino Basel, and the KKL Lucerne, where I performed with the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra. I also regularly appear at Villa Senar, the historic home of Sergei Rachmaninoff. My musical education has been enriched by masterclasses with renowned pianists such as Daniil Trifonov, Alexei Volodin, Benjamin Moser, Jean-Marc Luisada, and others. While I remain active as a concert artist, teaching has become an equally important part of my musical life. I’d be happy to help you build practical skills at the piano, deepen your understanding of music theory and harmony, or guide you through the vast world of musical literature. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to refine specific areas, I look forward to supporting your musical journey.

What makes Baroque music different from Romantic? How did Mozart, Beethoven, and Stravinsky change the sound of the world? In this course, we’ll explore the major eras of Western classical music, from the ornate harmonies of the Baroque to the bold, theory-breaking works of the 20th century. Each lesson focuses on a different time period or movement, introducing key composers, musical styles, and the historical and cultural forces that shaped the sound of each era. This class is designed to be accessible and engaging, NOT theory heavy. No formal music training is required. We’ll focus on listening, storytelling, and historical context, helping you connect with music as both an art form and a reflection of its time. We’ll explore each period using musical excerpts, visual art, cultural history, and key ideas — with room for discussion, questions, and student interests. Topics Included: - Baroque Era: Bach, Vivaldi, sacred music, ornamentation, court life - Classical Era: Mozart, Haydn, balance, Enlightenment ideals - Romantic Era: Beethoven, Chopin, nationalism, emotion, revolution - Impressionism & Modernism: Debussy, Stravinsky, fragmentation, innovation - 20th Century and Beyond: Minimalism, film scores, electronic music, global voices Learning Goals: - How to identify musical styles and characteristics by era - Key composers and the cultural movements they reflected - How to listen critically and understand music’s relationship to its time - Confidence discussing music without needing formal training or theory background This class is perfect for music students, history lovers, or anyone curious about the evolution of classical music — and the stories it tells.

Evie studied music at university in London and has been playing violin and viola for over 20 years. She is interested in a broad range of music, which she hopes to share with students of all ages and abilities in their lessons. As a performer, Evie plays in various settings - folk, jazz, in bands, as well as more typical orchestral and chamber ensembles. Her own musical interest currently lies in folk, baroque music and improvisation. Evie has been teaching a broad range of students for the last eight years: those who wish to take graded exams, those looking to explore folk and improvisation, expand their repertoire, or brush up on technique. She also currently teaches group violin classes at a primary school in London. She has found that encouraging a structured and regular practice at home, if possible with the help of a parent or guardian, is the best way to reach goals and feel confident while playing. Most of all, she encourages students to be open-minded, inquisitive, and ready to listen to a variety of music! Evie is always ready to cater specifically to the needs and interests of the student, and to create a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. In lessons, she will cover sight-reading, exam preparation, music theory, focused technique, improvisation, standard repertoire, and any music the student may wish to explore on their instrument.

Hi all. I am a musicologist, music editor and opera specialist with 15+ years experience in casting, season planning, YAP design and artistic development in the field of opera, as well as university-level teaching experience and academic publications. I am currently residing in Taiwan under the Employment Gold Card programme, looking for local talent to develop either on an individual basis or with a local institution. Knowing Taiwan very well, I have always wondered why there are so few internationally renowned Taiwanese classical musicians. Let's try and change that situation ! Make me believe in your potential ! I am open to discuss artistic development programmes for upcoming Taiwanese opera singers, and to organise YAP, masterclasses and promotional events for Taiwanese institutions and universities. I can prepare detailed artistic development plans for individual artists and place recommendations with international organizations. I have a large network of international contacts which I can use to promote young Taiwanese artists abroad. I am open to take on editorial projects and international promotional activities for Taiwanese composers. I am open to work as a research advisor for postgraduate students in Musicology. I teach intermediate to advanced topics in my fields of expertise, including Opera Studies, Music Palaeography, Editorial Method, Source Studies and European Music History and Analysis. I am also open to suggestions for teaching or promotional activities according to the specific needs of individual artists, teachers, universities or institutions. Simply let me know what you need and we'll take it from there. ==> Be clear about your professional goals. Embarking on a PhD in performance is NOT the preferred road towards becoming a successful international artist. While I do teach music analysis, I do not dabble in "Music Theory" as taught at many US universities and colleges. Stuff such as Schenkerian analysis that was all the rage in the US some decades ago is an intellectual desert based on a nonsensical proposition of musical universality, with nothing to offer the young aspiring professional performer. Currently I teach and interact in English. I also have professional command of Italian, Japanese, French, Spanish and German. In the past I have taught advanced courses in English, Italian and Japanese. I am able to read Chinese, but I currently do not speak beyond the basics (A2). I may code switch between English and Italian, especially when discussing opera topics and while directing or auditioning singers. I expect students to know music notation and to be able to read vocal and orchestral scores. I will help you with the more advanced technical terminology. == My cv in brief == Qualifications: - PhD in Musicology with Opera Studies and Editorial Method (Leeds, UK, 2003) - Master of Music in Musicology with Opera Studies and Editorial Method (Leeds, UK, 1999) - Licence in Musicology (NOVA University, Lisbon, Portugal, 1996) Professional Experience: - 2008-present: Opera planning, casting and YAP design for opera houses worldwide; artistic development for singers - 2009-2016: Editor for CESEM, CIAO and Bärenreiter: Critical editions of "La testa di bronzo" and "Gabriella di Vergy" (Mercadante), and "Sigismondo" (Rossini). - 2008-2011: CIAO (University of Chicago) Post-doctoral researcher in the operas of Rossini under Philip Gossett; - 2004-2008: Artistic development advisor: Design and implementation of artistic development programmes for young artists in cooperation with casting departments at opera theatres worldwide; - 2004-2008: Independent Scholar (Tokyo University of the Arts) MEXT (文部科学省) scholarship for research in Japanese contemporary music and opera, with a focus on the operas of Miki Minoru (三木稔); - 2000-2002: Assistant Lecturer at the University of Leeds (UK), teaching "Issues in Opera" and "Music Palaeography Source Studies and Editorial Method".
