Five panelists engage in roundtable discussion about equity in music

The Faculty of Music is a fertile ground for academic discourse and offers numerous opportunities for the exchange of ideas through lectures, presentations, forums, and other events. Our various colloquia and roundtables bring together performers, composers and researchers to share knowledge and insights covering a wide array of topics within and related to the study music.

Music Research Festival

The Music Research Festival (MRF) is an annual, week-long series of free events in celebration of music research at the University of Toronto, organized and presented in partnership and collaboration with the Faculty of Music Research Office and the Music Library. The festival aims to showcase the innovative research and creative work of professors, staff, post-doctoral fellows, graduate and undergraduate students at the Faculty of Music. 

Undergraduate and Graduate students share their research through the Music Library's Research Showcase poster sessions and events, while faculty, staff, and postdoctoral fellows participate in lectures, workshops, panel discussions and roundtables throughout the week. MRF25 will take place during the week of February 24-28, 2025.
