Personal Statement

As a musicologist, Paul Moulton teaches a wide range of historical and education courses. In his research he often approaches historical musicology from an ethnomusicological point of view, and he is particularly interested in the way music impacts the lives of individuals. His scholarly interests include music of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and Scottish, Celtic, and Navajo music. Moulton has presented research at regional, national, and international conferences, and he has published several articles in scholarly journals and books. Paul joined the faculty in 2007.

Moulton cares deeply cares about his students connecting music history to their own lives and music experiences, believing firmly that what you study should change who you are and what you think and do. He believes that the study of music history and the music of other cultures can especially broaden and enrich one’s capacity to feel and empathize with others.

In addition to his academic career, he and his wife have five wonderful children, and in his spare time he likes to run, hike, garden, read, and serve in his church and in the community
