Eric Drott received his Ph.D. from Yale University, where he taught prior to coming to the University of Texas at Austin. His research focuses on European and American avant-garde music from the 1960s to the present, addressing in particular questions of cultural politics and aesthetics. He is currently working on a book on the interaction of music and politics in France after May ‘68, for which he has received a research fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Dr. Drott has presented papers at national and international conferences, including the Society for Music Theory, the American Musicological Society, the International Musicological Society, the Modernist Studies Association, and the International Conference on Twentieth-Century Music. His articles have appeared in the Musical Quarterly, Music Analysis, the Journal of Musicology, and American Music.
