Joachim Brügge

Joachim Brügge (born in 1958) is a German musicologist and composer.

Life

Brügge was born in Kiel. After his studies of music theory at the Musikhochschule Lübeck (Diploma 1985), he studied Historical and Systematic Musicology/Music Ethnology and Ethnology at the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen and completed his studies in 1993 with a thesis under Martin Staehelin "On the Personal Style of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart". In 2002 he habilitated at the University Mozarteum Salzburg on the subject of historical musicology with the thesis Wolfgang Rihm's string quartets. Aspects of analysis, aesthetics and genre theory of the modern string quartet.

Since 1994 he has been working at the Universität Mozarteum Salzburg, first at the Department 1 for musical composition/conducting and music theory and, after his habilitation, at the Department 9, musicology.

Since 2003 he has been working together with Peter Kuon and Sabine Coelsch-Foisner on the development of the focal point Science and Art, which is the cooperation between the University Mozarteum Salzburg and the University of Salzburg in teaching, scientific-artistic projects and publications.

In 2006 he founded the Institute for History of Musical Reception and Interpretation at the University Mozarteum Salzburg together with Wolfgang Gratzer and Thomas Hochradner.

Together with Thomas Bodmer and Hildemar Holl, numerous projects on the life and work of Stefan Zweig have been realized since 2002, which among others led to the foundation of the Zweig Centre in Salzburg in 2008.

Main areas of research

The modern music history of the 18th-20th century is at the centre of Bruges' musicological work, with the following focal points:

  • Viennese classic (W.A. Mozart),
  • 19th century instrumental music,
  • New music after 1975 (among others Rihm),
  • scientific-theoretical questions concerning the musicological methodological discourse (analysis and reception, possibilities and limits of contextualism, critical questioning of fashion topics such as intertextuality among others),
  • American music (also popular music of the 70s, American music theatre).

Teaching activities

The teaching activities include music historical topics (history of piano music, history of chamber music, history of music theory, song analysis, music history at a glance) as well as selected topics (sociology of music, film music among others).

Contributions to university development

At the end of the 1990s the University Mozarteum Salzburg had to cope with major tasks such as the closure and reconstruction of the main building on Mirabellplatz in 1998, the implementation of various austerity programmes with the reduction of the study plans or the management of the Mozart Year 2006. Brugge was involved in the following working groups:

  • 1999-2002: Participation in numerous working groups on the revision of the course plans.
  • since WS 2003: Commissioner for Cooperation with Paris Lodron University.
  • from 2009-2012: Chairman of the Curricula Commission "Science and Art" of the University Mozarteum Salzburg.
  • from October 2002-October 2004, Institute Board of the Institute 14.
  • 2007-2009: Working group "Artistic Master Thesis".
  • 2003-2010: with Peter Kuon, head of the focus "Science and Arts", from 2010 to 2014 with Peter Kuon Program Director: Science and Arts: Arts & Humanities.
  • since 2011: director of the Institute for the History of Musical Reception and Interpretation at the Mozarteum University Salzburg.
