Resumen

A glance at the output of music iconography research of the last twenty years reveals an obvious topical plurality that can easily be misunderstood as a kind of eclecticism.3 That is why music iconography research still appears – metaphorically speaking – more like a construction site than a garden in the style of André Le Nôtre. The topical and methodological plurality of music iconography is, however, the result of the development of music iconography as a research field and its specific dependence on an interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary and/or multidisciplinary discourse to generate useful scholarly knowledge.
