About the Programme

AHRC Doctoral Studentship (PhD)
Music
THE OPEN UNIVERSITY & THE NATIONAL LIBRARY OF SCOTLAND

As part of an exciting partnership between the National Library of Scotland and The Open University, we are able to offer a 3-year, full-time AHRC studentship for doctoral work in Music (to commence October 2013). The student will join a community of students in the Music Department at The Open University but will be based primarily in Edinburgh and will work closely with National Library of Scotland's staff and collections.

Proposals will be accepted for any project seeking to utilise the National Library of Scotland's music collections (alongside other relevant collections elsewhere). As well as strengths in all aspects of Scottish music, the Library has internationally significant holdings relating to Handel, Verdi and Berlioz. The Library also houses an extensive archive of unexplored sound recordings in a variety of formats.
