dc.descriptionAbstract The paradigm called ‘New Historicism’ and its many spin-offs like ‘New Musicology’, proclaims that an art historian should no longer limit itself to solely the study of an artwork, but should instead focus on its historical and sociological “context”. By means of a new tool that we shall label “Masonic musicology” will argue that the logic used by New Musicologists and of even Ethnomusicologists also applies to the study of music in relation to freemasonry. Studying a composer’s involvement with freemasonry, can lead to inspiring new interpretations of a composer’s work. The goal of this article is threefold; first, it determines some interesting findings other scholars have put forward. Secondly, it is a theoretical framework for the undertaking of similar studies. Thirdly, it relates this theoretical framework to other up-to-date paradigms, to thus encourage scholars not to treat the masonic connection in art as the taboo subject it sometimes is.
