This paper addresses current chances and challenges in computational musicology.Computational musicology is a genuinely interdisciplinary research area that requires the contribution of questions, methods and in sights from both musicology and computer science.This paper demonstrates ho~ computational approaches to musicological questions generate new perspectives for musicology.In turn, computational musicology has the potential to become an indispensible partner for computer science in Mus~c Inf~~at~on Retrieval.We argue that, for unfolding the potential of computational musicology, the full mterdlsclplmary enterprise has yet to be realized and we discuss examples of promising collaborative directions.
