Professor Heneghan’s research interests include music analysis, study of archival documents, the history of music theory, and the Second Viennese School. Her new research project examines the corpus of piping tunes collected by James Goodman in south-west Ireland during the mid-1800s. Funded by MIDAS, this work is part of a larger project with colleagues in music theory, statistics, and linguistics entitled “A Computational Study of Patterned Melodic Structures across Musical Cultures.”
