The Royal College of Music seeks to appoint an outstanding music historian to what is one of the world’s top conservatoires. You will be capable of inspiring and enthusing our exceptionally talented performance and composition students in the contextual aspects of their learning across our undergraduate (Levels 4, 5, and 6) and postgraduate (Level 7) programmes. You will also have an active research profile with a record of publication and the potential to produce outputs that are at least internationally excellent in terms of originality, significance and rigour. Although RCM welcome applicants with any historical specialism, preference will be given to those able to undertake research-led teaching of large-scale genres (opera, symphonic music, etc.) of the long nineteenth century.
