William Gibbons earned a B.A. in music (collaborative piano) from Emory & Henry College, as well as an M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His diverse research interests include opera studies, music and culture in fin-de-siècle Paris, nineteenth-century American music, and music in video games. His articles on these and other topics have been published in a variety of journals, including 19th Century Music, American Music, the Journal of the Society for American Music, Eighteenth-Century Life, and Music and the Moving Image. Gibbons’s first book, Building the Operatic Museum: Eighteenth-Century Opera in Fin-de-Siècle Paris, is under contract with the University of Rochester Press, and he is at work co-editing a collection of articles on music in video games. In addition to musicological pursuits, Gibbons is a frequent performer on the piano and harpsichord.

Gibbons is a recipient of the Elisabeth M. Bartlet grant from the American Musicological Society as well as a Dissertation Completion Fellowship from the American Council of Learned Societies and the Andrew Mellon Foundation. Before joining the TCU faculty, Gibbons taught courses at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the University of Iowa.
