Marcel Camprubí is a musicologist specializing in Arabic music theory in the medieval Middle East and al-Andalus. His research examines the history of music theory, historical notations, and cross-cultural histories of medieval music.
At the Yale Institute of Sacred Music, Camprubí is developing a project on monasteries in the medieval Middle East (eighth to tenth centuries) as sites of musical encounter between Christians and Muslims, examining how they functioned simultaneously as spaces of interreligious contact and sonic boundary-making.
Before joining Yale, he was Frances A. Yates Postdoctoral Fellow at the Warburg Institute, London, and Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Hamburg with support from the DAAD. He received his PhD from Princeton University in 2024.
