Leverhulme Early Career Research Fellowhip

In May 2012 I heard that I had been awarded a 3 year research fellowship at the University of Edinburgh  starting in September 2012. My research topic is the history of electronic music performance practice, and this is very much practice led work.

This will centre around the WDR Studio in Cologne and the work of Stockhausen, Koenig, Eimert, Kagel and others as well as an in depth enquiry into the technicians and engineers such as Heinz Schütz, Friedhelm Leppel, Leopold von Knobelsdorf, Jaap Spek, Werner Scholz, Volker Müller and others.
