  • Musicology in German Universities 17Riedrich 11Lume
    Musicology in German Universities 17riedrich 11lume As is generally known, Germany is justly regarded as what may be called "the cradle of modern musicology."l "Modern musicology" in this sense stands for scholarly access to music on the basis of the principles and method of empirical learning, in contradistinction to the medieval concept of ars musica (vyith its two major spheres of scientia. and usus musicae) which meant scholarly access to music on the basis of numerical speculation and rational definition of the sounds. Once an indispensable (and at'times even compulsory) component of the academic curriculum and (in the Middle Ages) of the quadrivium, the study of music had slowly petered out and finally come to an end in the German universities between the last decades of the 16th century and the early 18th century. For a certain period there was an almost complete lacuna and the word musica was lacking altogether in the programs, although it was a gross exaggeration when Peter Wagner in 1921 pretended that this lacuna had lasted for two centuries. Of all German universities only Leipzig seems to have preserved the Medieval tradition, at least to some extent. The reputation of musica as a field of academic learning and the reputation of its teachers had decayed. In some caseS professors of mathematics had been offered the chairs of musica and in others the teaching of music had been attached to that of physics. Scientific leanings of music theorists dominated in the period of Johannes Kepler, Robert Fludd, Marin Mersenne, etc.-precursors of the division between the historical and the scientific conception of musicology that came to the fore in the 19th century.
