An Ethnomusicologist studies the music of different cultures, examining its social, cultural, and historical contexts to understand its significance and impact on communities. They conduct field research, often involving participant observation, interviews, and recording performances, to gather data about musical practices and traditions.
Ethnomusicologists may analyse music through various methodologies, write scholarly articles, and present findings at conferences to contribute to academic knowledge. They often collaborate with musicians and cultural institutions to promote awareness and appreciation of diverse musical heritages.
