Research

  • My research interests lie in the analysis, history and criticism of twentieth-century neoclassical and modernist music and its aftermath, with a special focus on Austro-German music. My doctoral research, on the Swiss composer Robert Blum (1900-1994), aims to combine a close reading of the scores with an analysis of the historical and aesthetic background against which his music was composed and received.
