Switzerland will soon see its first ever Master's programme in ethnomusicology, starting in September 2016. It will be the fruit of a collaboration between three institutions: the University of Geneva, the University of Neuchâtel and the Geneva music school Haute école de musique (HEM). The aim: responding to the considerable need to form specialists in non Western music capable of taking on responsibilities in teaching, research, cultural activities (artistic work, organising events, conservation of heritage, etc.), cultural journalism, development and cooperation projects, and much more.More in the University of Neuchâtel newspaper and on the official webpage. Image source: https://www2.unine.ch/unine/masters/master_en_ethnomusicologie &#160;
