These papers canvass a wide variety of methods and approaches that can be used to study music (and other creative practices). For those students completing their studies at either third or fourth year, these papers will supplement the theoretical knowledge they have gained in music studies papers at lower levels. For students wishing to have a broad methodological foundation for honours and/or postgraduate study, taking this paper at 300- or 400-level will be essential.
