Abstract
This article deals with current dynamics emanating from the digital humanities and the challenges they pose for the traditional field of musicology. Moving from this description and the dominant reaction so far from musicology with projects related to infrastructure and digital editions of canonical topics, the article then focuses on heretofore overlooked opportunities and risks. A potentially crucial issue is explored in greater detail regarding a recent trend in developments concerning the “archival turn” in this “digital turn”: the dissolution of the traditional limits between archives and research and the consequences of this for future historiographical work.
