History of the Journal:

The journal commenced its publication journey in 1995 under the title Fermata, initiated by music graduate students with partial funding from the School of Music and the Graduate Student Society. This title was maintained until January 2002. In the spring of 2004, musicology graduate students revitalized the journal, rebranding it as Musicological Explorations.

Focus & Scope:

Fermata invited graduate students to submit relevant, previously unpublished articles on historical and systematic musicology, analysis, criticism, interdisciplinary studies, and performance practice. It also welcomed book and record reviews. Upon its revival, as Musicological Explorations it expanded the scope to encourage diverse musicological research, including interdisciplinary work. This mission guided the journal until its final issue in 2018.
