Music Ph.D. Candidate Saagar Asnani Featured on Berekeley Voices Podcast to Discuss Medieval Music

In his research, UC Berkeley Ph.D. candidate Saagar Asnani looks at music manuscripts from between the 12th and 14th centuries in medieval France. He says only recently have scholars begun to use a wider variety of media and artistic expressions as a way to study language. “If we unpack the genre of music, we will find a very precise record of how language was spoken,” Saagar says.
