Dr. Kahrs' research examines intersections between twentieth- and twenty-first century musics, audio technologies, and hearing theories. His current work analyzes how American experimental music, French spectral music, global sound art, and electroacoustic repertoires renegotiate tonality's relationship to acoustics and perceptual science. His scholarship appears in Music Theory Online, Tempo, and Mitteilungen der Paul Sacher Stiftung, with presentations at Society for Music Theory (SMT) and American Musicological Society conferences.
