The Journal of the Alamire Foundation provides a critical forum for the most recent and outstanding research on music in or related to the Low Countries up to the end of the Ancien Régime. It appears twice yearly. Each issue consists of three sections. The first focuses on a specific theme. The second contains free papers applying the full range of musicological approaches on any relevant topic.

The Journal’s distinctive ingredients guarantee it a unique profile. Its emphasis on research of the highest quality aims to place it among the leading journals in its field.

Chaque numéro est composé de trois sections. La première aborde un thème spécifique. La deuxième comprend des articles libres sur les différentes approches musicales appliquées aux thèmes évoqués. La troisième vise à favoriser le dialogue entre les spécialistes et propose des échanges d’idées sur un événement, une production, une édition, un livre ou une revue récente.
