Extract

Whereas ethnomusicologists rarely agree amongst themselves on a definition of their field of study, there seems to be an unusual consensus of opinion about the period in which ethnomusicology, then called “comparative musicology”, developed as a distinct discipline. Prominent 20th century scholars such as Erich M. von Hornbostel (1922:3)2 and Robert Lachmann concur in their view that the roots of this “science” (Wissenschaft) are to be found in the 1880's:

Die exakt-wissenschaftliche Erforschung der außereuropäischen Musik is erst wenige Jahrzehnte alt. Sie beginnt mit Messungen von Instrumentalstimmungen nach physikalischen Methoden (1885 durch A.J. Ellis) und mit der naturgetreuen Festlegung gesungener und gespielter Musik durch den Phonographen (Lachmann 1929:5).
