Welcome to the Institute of Musical Research

spacer

The Institute of Musical Research exists to facilitate research in music of all traditions and eras, and to support freelance and affiliated scholars alike.

 

At the IMR we run a busy events schedule, host visiting fellows at our London base, support research projects and groups, and administer a national research training centre and information gateway.
