Emily MacGregor

Emily MacGregor is a Visiting Fellow in Music at King's College London, holding a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship. Her research examines twentieth-century musical culture through interdisciplinary lenses connecting musicology, history of knowledge, and emotion studies.

MacGregor's work analyzes how symphonic compositions reflect political identity formation during periods of upheaval. Her monograph on interwar symphonies investigates musical responses to fascism's emergence. Recent publications explore musical migration patterns and composer myth-making.

Honors include the Jerome Roche Prize for distinguished early-career scholarship. She actively contributes to public engagement through BBC broadcasting and concert programming.
