Disputation Marianne Berglöf

Field of study: Performance Practice

Marianne Berglöf defends her dissertation The Music Drama as'Ereignis'. Post-structuralist performances of Wagner's 'Der Ring des Nibelungen' as a challenge for musicological conceptualisation.

The public defence starts at 10 am and takes place in the Auditorium. The trial lecture will be carried out the previous day at 4 pm.

The dissertation is written in Norwegian, and the disputation language is Norwegian/Swedish/Danish.

The Assessment Committee

The Committee comprises the following members:

• Professor Erlend Hovland, the Norwegian Academy of Music (Committee Chair).
• Associate Professor Martin Knust, Linnæus University, Växjö, Sweden.
• Dr Nila Parly, the Royal Danish Academy of Music, Copenhagen, Denmark

If you are unable to attend the Norwegian Academy of Music in person, you can follow the defence via live stream. The stream will not be recorded. Click on this link to follow the event.

We encourage everyone to attend in person, as in most cases a live stream will not be considered a satisfactory alternative to being present in the Levin Hall. In addition, this is a relatively simple video production, which may result in limitations in terms of sound and image quality.

The dissertation will be availiable in NVA (nva.sikt.no) two weeks before the disputation.

Professor Erling Guldbrandsen and Professor Henrik Holm have been Marianne Berglöf's supervisors.
