The Elliott Antokoletz Fund for research in twentieth-century music is a memorial to Elliott Antokoletz (1942-2017), one of the foremost scholars and teachers of twentieth-century music, whose work, insights, and phenomenal accomplishments emphasizing the creative aspects of music inspired decades of students. The grant is given annually to one or more doctoral students at or PhD graduates of North American universities to conduct doctoral or post-doctoral musicological research on twentieth-century music. The Elliott Antokoletz Fund accepts applications from doctoral students at or PhD graduates of North American universities to conduct doctoral or post-doctoral musicological research involving music-centered approaches to creativity in twentieth-century music (composition, improvisation, performance). If they seek to conduct research for their dissertation, applicants must have completed all other requirements for the PhD. If they seek to conduct post-doctoral research, they should have completed the PhD within the past five years. Preference will be given to applicants whose home institutions do not offer financial support for musicological research. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Musicological Society for more information.
