My Picture

Come, follow me into the realm of music (F.Busoni, 1910)

 

Dr Paul Fleet completed his PhD in March 2007 under the supervision of Prof. David Clarke.  He has since turned his thesis into a book, published in November 2009, titled Ferruccio Busoni: A Phenomenological Approach to his Music and Aesthetics (Lambert Academic Publishing, 2009): ISBN 978-3-8383-2390-9 (available through Amazon: click here).  Paul is Lecturer in Music at Newcastle University, UK where he is responsible for Music Skills provision within the department, and teaching Harmony and Aural Skills, Vernacular Music Skills, Counterpoint and Voice Leading and Practising Music Analysis.  He is also the research supervisor for several undergraduate finalists.  His research interests include Ferruccio Busoni, Phenomenology, Aesthetics, Analysis, Progressive Rock Guitar Techniques, Dubstep, and Embodied Learning Strategies for Music Skills.

Other pages within this site introduce some of his prior, current and future research interests, and there is a blog (fourth finger) so that he can vent ideas that are moving in all directions around his consciousness (whatever and wherever that may be).
