Musicology Club
Welcome to the Chico State Musicology landing Page! We are the club that hosts events for people to talk about the music they care about and to share their experiences with others. If you are interested, please follow the links for sign ups and updates.
About Us: Each month, we pick a theme for the albums we'll be listening to (like black history or 70s for example), and students brainstorm 2 albums of that theme of which are put on a voting board. For example, if we have 10 students putting down 2 albums each, we'd have 20 albums to vote on. Then as a club, we vote and narrow those 20 albums down to 4 albums to listen to in a span of 2 weeks. As for month schedule it would go like this: Week 1: vote, Week 2: Talk about first 2 albums, Week 3: talk about second 2 albums, Week 4: Bring your own music (or other). Our friends made this club in their community college and we went to the meetings and they were always fun. It gives students a chance to talk about albums they're passionate about and spread that passion to others. We find that there isn't much chance for students to talk about albums they are passionate about, but we feel it is yearned for. That's why we hear "____" is the goat or "____" is legendary because of this song, or this album, but we don't get the full meat and potatoes of what makes people love it. This club gives students that chance. Hearing people's music passion is such an enjoyable experience, and you learn a lot about certain albums and artists because people research and or analyze the details of the music they love. We would love to spread Musicology here to Chico for that reason.
