Laurie McManus’s broad interests in aesthetics, gender, and the intersection of the arts inform both her teaching and research.

She has presented at national and international conferences, and has published in Nineteenth-Century Music, the Journal of Music History Pedagogy, Jazz Perspectives, Studi Musicali and the American Brahms Society Newsletter. Her research has been supported by a fellowship from the Berlin Program for Advanced German and European Studies, the Karl Geiringer dissertation award from the American Brahms Society and the Bozarth Award from the American Musicological Society.
