The fellowship was established by friends of Howard Mayer Brown
on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday. Intended to increase
the presence of minority scholars and teachers in musicology,
it supports one year of graduate work for a student at a North
American university who is a member of a group historically under-represented
in the discipline, including, in the U.S., African Americans,
Native Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans, and,
in Canada, visible minorities. See
list of fellows.
Howard Mayer Brown (1930–93), the eminent scholar of medieval
and Renaissance music, held three degrees from Harvard (BA 1951,
MA 1954, PhD 1959), where he studied musicology with Otto Gombosi
and composition with Walter Piston. After teaching at Wellesley
College (1958-60), he joined the faculty at the University of
Chicago in 1967. He also taught at King’s College, London
(1972-74). Brown’s leadership of the University of Chicago
Collegium Musicum established the organization as a model of
its kind among American universities. His extensive collection
of some 1,700 microfilms of early manuscript and printed works
is at the Newberry Library, Chicago.
Databases list over 150 works written, edited, or introduced
by Howard Brown. Among those most routinely consulted are Music
in the French Secular Theater, 1400-1550 (1963), Instrumental
Music Printed Before 1600: A Bibliography (1965), the Prentice
Hall Music in the Renaissance (1976), Renaissance
Music in Facsimile (29 vols, ed. with Frank d’Accone
and Jessie Ann Owens ), the Norton Performance Practice volumes
(ed. with Stanley Sadie, 1990), and Josquin’s Secular Works
for Three Voices (ed. with Jaap van Benthem, new Josquin edn.,
1991). A Florentine Chansonnier from the Time of Lorenzo
the Magnificent won the 1984 Kinkeldey Prize.
