from EC2 Hosted by Ella Choi
In this episode, I chat with Professor Elizabeth Eva Leach. Professor Leach is a distinguished musicologist and music theorist at the University of Oxford, specializing in medieval music and poetry - particularly from the fourteenth century. Her award-winning scholarship ranges from detailed manuscript studies to broader cultural and philosophical contexts, with notable works including Medieval Sex Lives (2023) and the prize-winning Guillaume de Machaut (Gee-yum de Ma-show): Secretary, Poet, Musician (2011). She has received multiple prestigious awards for her research on topics including medieval song, gender in music theory, and the trouvère tradition. Beyond her prolific publications, she co-edits the journal Early Music and serves on the councils of several major musicological societies, while continuing to supervise graduate students and lecture on medieval music history at Oxford.
