Cornelia Szabo-Knotik has a PhD in musicology from the University of Vienna (with a doctoral thesis on Franz Liszt: Musik und Religion im Zeitalter des Historismus: Franz Liszts Wende zum Oratorienschaffen als ästhetisches Problem, Wissenschaftliche Arbeiten aus dem Burgenland, ed. by the Burgenländisches Landesmuseum in Eisenstadt, vol. 64, Eisenstadt 1982) and is associate professor and currently chair of the Institute of Analysis, Theory and History of Music at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna (www.iatgm.erg.at). Her qualification as a university lecturer at the Karl-Franzens-University Graz was achieved in 1996 by the submission of a book on Mozart’s music in movies (Mozart im Kino. Eine methodologische und rezeptionsgeschichtliche Untersuchung zum Thema Kunstmusik und Film), which is mainly a study on the movie Amadeus (AMADEUS. Milos Formans Film als muiskhistorisches Phänomen, Grazer Musikwissenschaftliche Arbeiten, ed. by Rudolf Flotzinger, vol. 11, Graz 1999). Being interested in the aesthetic content as well as the social and cultural importance of music, her main subjects are the history of musical life, reception, new media (film), and the way in which the musical heritage is confronted.
