 Susan McClary
Susan McClary is a musicologist often associated with the "New Musicology" because of her work combining musicology and feminism in Feminine Endings (ISBN 0816641897), a once commonly used term for weak cadencess.
While seen by some as extremely radical, her work is influenced by musicologists such as Edward T. Cone, gender theorists and cultural critics such as Teresa de Lauretis, and people who, like McClary, fall in between such as philosophre Theodor Adorno.
Susan McClary is on the faculty at the University of California, Los Angeles, and is married to the musicologist Robert Walser.

 Alain Bonardi: "IR for Contemporary Music: What the Musicologist Needs"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The musicologist is at the same time a listener and a composer, since analyzing a piece a music leads to “rewriting” it.
The musicologist must set together by himself “formal filters” enabling him to account for the composer’s intention, starting from directories of simple form bearing elements and classical structures.
In traditional music analysis, these two phases are split, since the musicologist reads a score and moreover writes a document in a literary form, without any possibility of dynamic link between the two.

 Musicologist wins baroque copyright case - 15 July 2004   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The High Court's decision that a musicologist who had substantially re-worked c.18th pieces should be regarded as the author of new works adds little to copyright law but it will send warning bells to rights managers dealing with older compositions often deemed to be out of copyright.
Australian-born musicologist Lionel Sawkins developed a passion for French baroque music after a visit to Europe in the later 1950s.
Nevertheless, the decision in Sawkins v Hyperion [2004] EWHC 1530 (Ch) should serve as a warning for record companies and performers who have assumed that certain works were out of copyright simply because of the date they were originally written.

Think yourself back to the city of London at the end of the year 1963 and meanwhile keep in mind that the virus of Beatlemania at that moment still was restricted to the British Isles and beat music was seen as music for adolescent boys and girls.
Trained musicologists understand that the theory books are based on the music of the great composers; not the other way around.

 RollingStone.com: Woody Guthrie : Musicologist Alan Lomax Dies : News   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)

"There was something friendly but competitive there," says fellow musicologist Chris Strachwitz, who, like Lomax, took to America armed with a microphone, tape deck and a sense of adventure, in founding his own folk music label, Arhoolie Records.

Musicologists who should have known better followed the tainted trend and dug up acres of plainsong for the feast of Santa Barbra.
All of this twaddle was duly published and broadcast with a parade of abominating balderdash and po-faced poppycock.
The musical world will take some time to recover, for what with this kind of red herring and with tenors masquerading as musicologists, assurance must be doubly sure if we and the composer are to survive.

Poietic description thus also deals with a quite special form of hearing (Varese called it 'the interior ear'): what the composer hears while imagining the work's sonorous results, or while experimenting at the piano, or with tape."
"By 'esthesic' I understand not merely the artificially attentive hearing of a musicologist, but the description of perceptive behaviors within a given population of listeners; that is how this or that aspect of sonorous relatiy is captured by their perceptive strategies." (Nattiez 1990:90)
The neutral level is that of the physical "trace", (Saussere's sound-image, a sonority, a score), created and interpreted by the esthesic level (which corresponds to a perceptive definition; the perceptive and/or "social" construction definitions below) and the poietic level (which corresponds to a creative, as in compositional, definition; the organizational and social construction definitions below).
