Eligibility

Jan LaRue Travel Fund, with an application deadline in April, offers one award in the amount of $2500.

Description

The Jan LaRue Travel Fund honors the memory of Jan LaRue (1918-2004), a distinguished scholar and AMS member admired for his pioneering work on style analysis, the eighteenth-century symphony, and early computer applications in musicology. The award is to be given annually to one or more doctoral students at or Ph.D. graduates of North American universities to conduct doctoral or post-doctoral musicological research in Europe. If they seek to conduct research for their dissertation, they must have completed all other requirements for the Ph.D. If they seek to conduct post-doctoral research, they should have completed the Ph.D. within the past five years. Preference will be given to applicants whose home institutions do not offer financial support for musicological research. Aside from the application and research information, one letter of support to be submitted by a scholar familiar with the applicant's work is also required. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Musicological Society for more information.
