Dr Clare Wilson

Dr Clare Wilson

Lecturer

Clare holds a PhD in music theory and analysis from Ulster University, a Masters in historical musicology from Maynooth University, and an Associate Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy, in addition to diplomas in piano performance, piano teaching, and special needs assisting.

Clare’s research is interdisciplinary in nature, and specialises in the intersections between French music, literature, and performance in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. More broadly her research interests embrace areas of performative analysis, analytical approaches to music of the twentieth century, and French literature and culture from about 1870–1940. She has presented her research globally at conferences in the UK, Europe, and US.

Clare’s forthcoming monograph The Song of André Caplet will be published Routledge in 2025 and other recent work includes studies that explore the musicopoetic relationship between Baudelaire and Caplet, and studies to develop rhythmic strategies to analyse Caplet’s Fort settings: Cinq Ballades Françaises (1919–1920) and other mélodies. Clare’s approaches to pedagogy are founded upon principles that embrace practice-led methods and reflective and critical engagement with musical materials, as well as creativity, integration, and inclusivity.
