Welcome to the Doctoral Programs page, a platform intended to list all institutions worldwide that offer doctoral programs in performance and research of double bass, or have produced doctoral research theses related to the general bass heritage. Commonly, these programs are offered within the two types of doctoral degrees: the Philosophy Doctor – PhD degree that assumes the most advanced research work in the fields of Musicology, Music Theory, Music Education or Acoustics, and the Doctor of Musical Arts – DMA degree that combines advanced performance study with the academic research of a PhD profile. PhD has been a traditional final degree in all scholarly disciplines, thus in music too, while DMA is a more recent doctoral profile intended primarily for advanced instrumentalists. The DMA degree was formulated during 1950s in the USA and has since been accepted in many other countries.

Currently, the entire education system of Europe is in the process of reform according to Bologna Declaration directions, including in it the field of doctoral studies in music as well. The proposed classification of degrees in Europe is thus formulated in the form of three cycles, where the last – third cycle will encompass doctoral study of traditional research style as well as allow for mixed performance & research doctorates equivalent of the US DMA level. Further information on the status of doctoral studies in Europe can be found at the AEC – European Association of Conservatories – Third Cycle page.

The listing offered here is designed to present pertinent information in the following sequence: institution name and link, the listing of all degrees offered including a record of PhD level research for those institutions that do not offer DMA, and the linked citations of current bass teachers providing their academic rank as cited on their school page. Also, it should be noted that some listed schools  may actually not have a record of previous doctoral candidates or graduates in the bass field, although they do officially offer a DMA degree in the area of instrumental performance.

United States of America

The standards of music education and the accreditation of institutions in the United States, are governed by the US Department of Education and the National Association of Schools of Music – NASM. Thus the PhD, DMA and similar degrees of DA, DM, DME that may encompass bass related fields, are also classified and regulated by them. Neither of these institutions unfortunately offers a direct link to a detailed online descriptions of PhD and DMA music programs, yet instead offer respectively the doctoral degree equivalency charts, and the explanation of the official music doctoral degree standards within the following two documents:

• US Department of Education : US Network for Education Information  [contains]  Research Doctorate Degrees.doc

• National Association of Schools of Music : NASM Standards  [contains]  NASM Handbook 2016-2017.pdf

Look for Doctoral Degrees in Music, Chapter XVI, p.134-137 for the official information on Purpose, Prerequisites, Degree Types and Specializations available for the doctoral study areas in music.

Lastly, due to the specifics of cultural development in the US, not all of the schools have opted to become members of NASM, among them some very reputable and established ones. This exclusivity should not be understood as any type of non-compliance to the general music standards presented by NASM, but rather as mode of preservation of individual liberties these institutions have accomplished over a period of time. Usually but not exclusively, you will find that old conservatories and prestigious Music Departments from the top ranking universities may not be NASM members, and yet their level of instruction and the status of doctoral contributions certainly rank among the best in the American academe. Thus you will find here the Non NASM institutions cited separately, only because the process of registering and entering these institutions was organized in such a way.

PHD Portal

PHD Portal offers a searchable database of all European institutions in higher education. If you go to “Discipline” search form and set the search limits in first field to “Arts, Design & Architecture” and the second one to “Music”, you will get a number of institutions where a doctorate in Musicology, or even Music Performance may be awarded. However, most of these institutions will not have a record of a prior doctoral research related to the double bass field, with the exception of those cited above under the separate European country headings.
