Musicology

Musicology (from Greek μουσική (mousikē), meaning "music", and -λογία (-logia), meaning "study of-") is the scholarly analysis of, and research on, music, a part of humanities. A person who studies music is a musicologist. For broad treatments, see the entry on "musicology" in Grove's dictionary, the entry on "Musikwissenschaft" in Musik in Geschichte und Gegenwart, and the classic approach of Adler (1885).

Traditionally, historical musicology (commonly termed "music history") has been the most prominent sub-discipline of musicology. In the 2010s, historical musicology is one of several large musicology sub-disciplines. Historical musicology, ethnomusicology, and systematic musicology are approximately equal in size.Ethnomusicology is the study of non-Western music. Systematic musicology includes music acoustics, the science and technology of acoustical musical instruments, and the musical implications of physiology, psychology, sociology, philosophy and computing. Cognitive musicology is the set of phenomena surrounding the computational modeling of music. In some countries, music education is a prominent sub-field of musicology, while in others it is regarded as a distinct academic field, or one more closely affiliated with teacher education, educational research, and related fields.

Musicology

Heard about the party now
Just east o' Harlem
Dougie's gonna b there
But u got 2 call him
Even the soldiers
Need a break sometimes
Listen 2 the groove ya'll
Let it unwind ur mind
No intoxication
Unless u c what eye c
Dancin hot n' sweaty
Right in font of me
Call it what u like
I'm gonna call it how it b
This is just another one
Of God's gifts
Musicology
Keep that party movin
Just like eye told you
Kick the old school joint
4 the true funk soldiers
Musicology
Wish eye had a dollar
4 everytime u say
Don't u miss the feeling
Music gave ya
Back in the day?
Let's Groove
September
Earth, Wind and Fire
Hot Pants by James
Sly's gonna take u higher
Minor keys and drugs
Don't make a rollerskate jam
Take ur pick - turntable or a band?
If it ain't Chuck D
or Jam Master Jay
Know what?
They're losin'
'Cause we got a PhD in
Advanced Body Movin'
Keep the party movin'
Just like eye told u
Kick the old school joint
4 the true funk soldiers
