The Musical Quarterly is the oldest academic journal on music in America.[1] Originally established in 1915 by Oscar Sonneck, the journal was edited by Sonneck until his death in 1928. Sonneck was succeeded by a number of editors, including most notably Paul Henry Lang, who edited the journal for over 25 years, from 1945 to 1973.

Since 1993 The Musical Quarterly has been edited by Leon Botstein, president of Bard College and principal conductor of the American Symphony Orchestra. It is published by Oxford University Press.
