Mark Ferraguto
Mark Ferraguto teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in music history. An internationally recognized scholar of 18th- and early 19th-century music, he has published widely on topics spanning the fields of musicology, music theory, cultural history, performance studies, and political science. During his time at Penn State, he has enjoyed developing and teaching new courses, advising M.A. theses, and performing with students and colleagues on harpsichord and organ.
