Revista de Musicología is a Spanish scholarly journal dedicated to musicology, historical musicology, and related studies in music theory and ethnomusicology. Founded in the late 20th century, the journal has published research on Renaissance music, Baroque music, Romanticism, 20th-century music, and contemporary developments connecting to institutions such as the Real Conservatorio Superior de Música de Madrid, the Instituto Nacional de las Artes Escénicas y de la Música, and international centers like the Royal College of Music and the Juilliard School. Contributors have included scholars associated with the Universidad Complutense de Madrid, the Universidad de Zaragoza, the Universidad de Salamanca, the Universidad de Barcelona, the Universidad de Sevilla, the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, the Harvard University, the Yale University, the University of Cambridge Faculty of Music, and the Biblioteca Nacional de España.
The journal was established in 1978 amid cultural initiatives led by Spanish institutions such as the Instituto de España, the Ministerio de Cultura (Spain), and the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando, reflecting renewed scholarly interest after the Franco era in figures like Tomás Luis de Victoria, Isaac Albéniz, Enrique Granados, Manuel de Falla, and Fernando Sor. Early editorial boards included scholars trained at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, the Universidad de Valladolid, the Universidad de Granada, and visiting researchers from the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, the Max Planck Society, and the Smithsonian Institution. Over decades the journal documented research on sources housed at archives such as the Archivo General de Indias, the Archivo Histórico Nacional, the British Library, the Bibliothèque nationale de France, and the Vatican Library.
The journal covers archival studies of composers like Antonio de Cabezón, Diego Ortiz, Gaspar Sanz, Tomás Luis de Victoria, Francisco Tárrega, Joaquín Rodrigo, and Isaac Albéniz; performance practice linked to ensembles such as the Orquesta Nacional de España and the Coral de la Catedral de Sevilla; and analytical work on repertoire from Gregorian chant traditions to contemporary works by Luis de Pablo and José María Sánchez-Verdú. It publishes interdisciplinary research engaging with institutions like the Museo del Prado, the Teatro Real, the Gran Teatre del Liceu, and international festivals such as the Festival Internacional de Música y Danza de Granada and the Aix-en-Provence Festival.
The editorial board has traditionally combined editors affiliated with the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, university departments at the Universidad de Valencia and the Universidad de Murcia, and independent scholars connected to libraries such as the Real Biblioteca del Monasterio de El Escorial. Peer review follows standard anonymous evaluation with referees from institutions including the University of California, Berkeley, the Columbia University, the Universität Heidelberg, the Universität Wien, Università di Bologna, and the Universidade de São Paulo. Editorial policies align with international norms promoted by organizations like the International Musicological Society, the European Musicological Society, and the Society for Ethnomusicology.
Published biannually, the journal issues thematic numbers and special supplements on topics tied to conferences at venues such as the Congreso Internacional de Musicología and symposia hosted by the Fundación Juan March. Back issues document proceedings associated with projects funded by the European Research Council, the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (Spain), and cultural programs of the European Commission. Production and distribution have involved partnerships with Spanish academic presses and cultural institutions, and physical copies circulate in libraries including the Library of Congress, the Biblioteca Nacional de España, the New York Public Library, and the British Library.
The journal is indexed in databases and services utilized by researchers at the Répertoire International de Littérature Musicale (RILM), the International Index to Music Periodicals (IIMP), Scopus, the Web of Science, and major catalogues like WorldCat. It appears in bibliographies and catalogues maintained by the Répertoire International des Sources Musicales (RISM), the European Library, and national repositories of the Ministerio de Cultura (Spain), facilitating citation tracking in works associated with scholars at the University of Chicago, the Princeton University, the University of Toronto, and the University of California, Los Angeles.
Significant articles have re-evaluated manuscripts attributed to Tomás Luis de Victoria and Francisco Guerrero, clarified provenance of collections from the Archivo de la Catedral de Sevilla and the Archivo de la Catedral de Toledo, and offered new editions of lute and vihuela repertory related to Luys de Narváez and Luis Milán. The journal published influential studies on Spanish zarzuela connected to the Teatro de la Zarzuela, analyses of guitar repertoire tied to Andrés Segovia, and critical perspectives on 20th-century composers including Manuel de Falla, Enrique Granados, Joaquín Rodrigo, Luís de Pablo, and Cristóbal Halffter. Methodological contributions have engaged with source criticism practiced at institutions like the British Library and editorial projects led by the Instituto Español de Musicología.
Scholars at the Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona, the Universitat Pompeu Fabra, the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, the University of California, Berkeley, and the New York University cite the journal in monographs and articles on Iberian music, early music performance, and contemporary composition. Its influence is evident in curricular developments at conservatories such as the Conservatori Superior de Música del Liceu and research agendas of cultural organizations like the Instituto Cervantes and the Centro Nacional de Difusión Musical. The journal has been recognized in retrospectives by the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando and cited in project reports funded by the European Research Council and national research councils.
