Abstract: Global musicology is a fact: musicologists are everywhere. However, musicology has yet to shift its epistemologies to acknowledge the multiple perspectives of scholars across the globe. In his talk, Daniel Chua will explore what such a shift might entail. Bio: Daniel K. L. Chua is the chair professor of music at the University of Hong Kong. He has written widely on music – from cosmological concepts in ancient Chinese music theory to NASA’s Golden Record on the Voyager mission – but is particularly known for his work on Beethoven, the history of absolute music, and the intersection between music, philosophy, technology and theology. His books include The ‘Galitzin’ Quartets of Beethoven (Princeton, 1994), Absolute Music and the Construction of Meaning (Cambridge, 1999), Beethoven and Freedom (Oxford, 2017), Alien Listening: Voyager’s Golden Record and Music from Earth (Zone Books, 2021), and Music and Joy: Lessons on the Good Life (Yale, 2024). Chua was a visiting fellow and professor at various institutions including Harvard and Yale universities, and served as President of the International Musicological Society (IMS) from 2017 to 2022.
