the progress made over the past decades in this vibrating field, numerous issues regarding the sharing of data, the reproducibility of research findings, and the general role of transparency remain challenging. In many disciplines, these issues are addressed
under the umbrella of the Open Science movement and the adherence to FAIR principles for scientific data management (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable;

To advance the state-of-the-art in data-based music research, <i>Empirical Musicology Review</i> is devoting a special issue to a wide discussion of questions related to Open Science and Open Data, and introduces a new section on data reports that will remain
a permanent part of the journal in all subsequent issues.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black;mso-fareast-language:FR-CH"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
