Aims & Scope

The Musicological Annual is the first international, scientific, musicological journal in Slovenia that has been published continuously since 1965. From the very beginning it has been issued by the Department of Musicology at the Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana. The journal is primarily focused on publishing the most recent papers in the fields of historical and systematic musicology. Special attention is devoted to researching Slovenian musical heritage, i.e. music that is in one way or another linked to the Slovenian cultural environment. By connecting Slovenian and foreign researchers, it presents scientific results to professional circles abroad. In this respect the Musicological Annual has a unique position among Slovenian specialised publications. The journal features highly diverse themes. In addition to basic historical themes, it covers the fields of ethnomusicology, music analysys, sociology of music, aesthetics, acoustics, psychology of music, musical iconography, and others. Special attention is also devoted to the interdisciplinary approach in researching music. Although the Musicology Collection is primarily intended for academics and other experts in the field of musicology and ethnomusicology, its broad thematic scope and interdisciplinary nature make it highly interesting for researchers in related humanities fields, musicians, and anyone interested in musical culture.
