More information on Collisions is available at http://eventalaesthetics.net/forauthors/ .
Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:
* Art “about” urbanity and/or industry, e.g. photography of Edward
Burtynsky; works like Anne LeBaron's opera "Crescent City"
* Aesthetic and/or philosophical responses to urban and/or industrial
disasters, e.g. 3/11: the earthquake and nuclear fallout in Japan
* Arts unique to urban spaces, e.g. street art, breakdancing, public art
* Artistic and musical cultures devoted to or centered in particular
cities, e.g. the New York School
* Urban sound art, e.g. work by Max Neuhaus, Bill Fontana, Yann Novak
* Everyday aesthetics
* Aesthetics and ideologies of technology, machinery, productivity, connectivity
* Matters concerning space, e.g. as discussed by Henri Lefebvre

IX Convegno di Analisi e Teoria Musicale
Rimini, Istituto Musicale Pareggiato “G. Lettimi”, 13-15 Settembre 2012
Bando di partecipazione
La rivista Analitica e il Gruppo di Analisi e Teoria Musicale, in collaborazione con l’Istituto di Alta Formazione Artistica e Musicale “G. Lettimi”, la Sagra Musicale Malatestiana e il Comune di Rimini organizzano il Nono Convegno di Analisi e Teoria Musicale a Rimini, nei giorni 13, 14 e 15 Settembre 2012, presso i locali dell’Istituto “G. Lettimi” (Rimini, Via Cairoli 44).
Come nelle edizioni precedenti, il Convegno prevederà diverse sessioni di studio, alcune su temi specifici, altre su argomenti liberi. Tra le diverse sessioni previste, una riguarderà le teorie, i repertori, le forme e il linguaggio della musica afro-americana, mentre altre si concentreranno sui linguaggi, i repertori, le forme e le produzioni teoriche del Novecento. Nelle sessioni dedicate ad argomenti liberi si potranno proporre relazioni su temi che riguardano, ad esempio, l'analisi di un’opera o di uno stile, la discussione di una metodologia analitica o di una teoria musicale, uno studio sulla storia dell’analisi o sui rapporti tra analisi ed esecuzione, un’esperienza di didattica dell’analisi. Per la partecipazione al Convegno è necessaria l'iscrizione annuale al GATM. Alla fine del Convegno l'Istituto "G. Lettimi" rilascerà uno specifico attestato ai partecipanti; per i docenti di Conservatorio e delle Scuole Medie è stato richiesto al Ministero l’esonero dalle lezioni.
Chiunque sia interessato a partecipare al Convegno con una propria relazione potrà inviare un abstract della lunghezza di due cartelle, corrispondenti a 4000-6000 caratteri. Le proposte di relazione dovranno essere inviate all'indirizzo email del Comitato Scientifico (analitica.online@tiscali.it) e dovranno pervenire entro il 20 Giugno 2012. L’abstract dovrà essere articolato come segue: titolo; stato attuale delle conoscenze sull’argomento; contenuti principali della comunicazione e obiettivi della ricerca; metodo analitico impiegato; apporti del proprio contributo rispetto allo stato attuale delle conoscenze. In aggiunta alle due cartelle, l’abstract dovrà anche contenere: bibliografia essenziale; eventuali esempi musicali; attrezzature richieste; nome, cognome, recapito, telefono e indirizzo email del mittente; breve curriculum (max 15 righe).
A ciascun intervento saranno concessi 40 minuti, dei quali 30 dedicati alla relazione (con eventuale utilizzo di power point) e 10 alla discussione. Si possono prevedere ascolti musicali su nastro o CD ed esemplificazioni al pianoforte. Il Comitato Scientifico del Convegno incoraggia la molteplicità delle metodologie e degli approcci, inclusi quelli trasversali a diversi campi d’indagine; il Comitato si riserva di privilegiare quelle relazioni nel cui contenuto siano presenti riferimenti alla letteratura musicologica internazionale di tipo analitico.
Il Comitato Scientifico del Convegno comunicherà i risultati della selezione ai diretti interessati entro il 30 Giugno 2012 Tutti gli abstract selezionati verranno pubblicati nel sito internet della rivista Analitica. Il Comitato si riserva di segnalare i lavori più interessanti per un’eventuale pubblicazione in formato cartaceo sulla Rivista di Analisi e Teoria Musicale (edizioni LIM) e in formato elettronico sul sito di Analitica. A tal fine la versione definitiva del testo dovrà pervenire all’organizzazione non oltre il 15 Novembre 2012 e sarà sottoposta a un gruppo di valutazione (referees) che potrà suggerire miglioramenti o adeguamenti alle esigenze editoriali delle riviste.

Borrowed Sounds, Original Melodies:

Since mid-twentieh century, when several academics fields embarked on the exploration of the cultural universe of the Spanish and Portuguese Americas, music iconography started to be used as a source of information and support of ideas related to the processes, phenomenons and objects that characterized the New-World musics since the ‘encounter’ with the Iberians to the exploits of the Independences.
Writen from dissimilar perspectives and heterogeneous approaches, literature focused on the pictorial representations of music in the two Americas have gone beyond the dichotomy among image and fact just a few times, so music iconography has not been considered in all its value as constituent element of social and cultural identity of the people who created that sources.
With the aim to change this unjust omission, this Symposium will prove that music iconography, using analytical tools and sources shared with other fields of the humanistic and artistic knowledge –to whom are linked through several models of disciplinary integration– contributes to add new ideas around the multiplicity of roles that sound has in the discursive processes of configuration of identity and everyday life of the New-World societies.

Desde mediados del siglo pasado, cuando diferentes disciplinas académicas se aventuraron en la exploración del universo cultural de las Américas hispana y lusitana, la iconografía de la música empezó a utilizarse como fuente de información y sustento de ideas de muy diversa índole formuladas en relación con los procesos, fenómenos y objetos que distinguían la música del Nuevo Mundo desde su encuentro con los ibéricos y hasta las gestas de independencia.
Realizados desde perspectivas disímiles y con enfoques heterogéneos, los trabajos que se han centrado en el análisis de representaciones figuradas de la música de las dos Américas en contadas ocasiones han podido rebasar la dicotomía de la imagen y el hecho musical, por no otorgar a la iconografía musical el valor del elemento constitutivo de la identidad social y cultural del pueblo creador de estas fuentes.
Con el propósito de enmendar tan inicua omisión, este simposio se abocará a demostrar que la iconografía musical, sirviéndose de herramientas analíticas y fuentes de estudio compartidas con otros campos del saber humanístico y artístico, a los que se vincula a través de diferentes modelos de integración disciplinaria, contribuye a generar conocimiento novedoso y fehaciente sobre la multiplicidad de papeles que la música ha desempeñado en los procesos discursivos de configuración de la identidad y el vivir cotidiano de las sociedades novomundistas.
Presentación de propuestas
Los interesados en participar en el simposio deberán enviar a los dos coordinadores, vía correo electrónico, la propuesta de su ponencia, que incluirá la siguiente información:
- Nombre y Apellidos

CFP (journal articles): The Future(s) of Music? - Notions of Prospective Musics in Utopian Movies and Literature
Call For Articles
The Future(s) of Music? – Notions of Prospective Musics in Utopian
Movies and Literature
The famous Cantina Band scene from George Lucas’ Star Wars, featuring
an alien ensemble performing a foxtrott-like John Williams
composition, is just one of many examples: While film scores often
have provided an experimental ground for musical innovators – just
think of the trendsetting sound creations Oskar Sala and Bernard
Herrmann contributed to the late films by Alfred Hitchcock – diegetic
depictions of musical performances, i.e. those scenes in films where
the production or consumption of music is part of the story, often
draw on known musical idioms when the dramatic setting is explicitly
utopian. The paradox here is that there seems to be a decisive
difference between composing innovative film scores on the one hand
and imagining, picturing and sounding-out “the music of the future” on
the other. Or, is it futures?
Now that Holly- has been joined by Bolly-, Hallyu-, Nolly-, and
several other -woods from all around the globe, the Norient Academic
Online Journal (NAOJ) is looking for articles for its second volume
that address cinematic, theatrical / dramatic and / or literary
delineations of the future(s) of music and that pay particular
consideration to the specific positions, perspectives and artistic
strategies of its producers. NAOJ is looking for contributions that
reflect on the diversity of worldviews, on “aural imaginations” of
places, discuss markers of knowledge and power, or explore traces of
ethnocentrism, traditionalism, or parody in these various produced and
performed futures.
We also welcome ethnographic articles on popular musics from around the world.
Deadline for abstracts (maximum 200 words) is May 31st, 2012 and
should be submitted to
journal_submission at norient.com

CONF: The Composer Mieczylsaw Weinberg and Socialist Realism in the Brezhnev Era, Univ. of Hamburg, May 2012
THE COMPOSER MIECZYSLAW WEINBERG AND SOCIALIST REALISM IN THE BREZHNEV ERA
An international symposium with concerts at the University of Hamburg, May 11 to 13, 2012
Mieczyslaw Weinberg (1919-1996) is currently being rediscovered all over the world as one of the most important Russian composers of the 20th century. Recordings and performances of his works are enjoying overwhelming success, for instance at the 2010 Bregenz Festival. A Polish Jew, in 1939 in order to escape the Nazis, Weinberg fled to the Soviet Union, where he enjoyed the patronage of such important figures as Dmitrj Shostakovich. Under Stalin he suffered anti-Semitic persecution and was imprisoned. It was not until Leonid Bre nev was in power between 1964 and 1982 that he increasingly enjoyed recognition and success, without ever being appointed a state composer. Rather, he appears to have found ways to come to terms with the governing artistic doctrine of Socialist Realism without sacrificing creativity. In order to be able to appreciate these ways, we need to compare the aesthetic standards we find in Weinberg’s works with the demands of the artistic doctrine. However,
parti
cularly in the field of music, precisely what these demands were has by no means been clarified to the same extent for all its phases,. While we now have a very clear picture for the period under Stalin,this is far less the case for the subsequent years. By focusing in particular on the Brezhnev era, this is what the symposium intends to address. What influence did Socialist Realism have on music during this time? What did it postulate and how was it influenced by ideological oscillations? And how can we contextualize and interpret Weinberg’s oeuvre from this era? As this can only be discussed in an interdisciplinary context, representatives of art history, literature studies and history will also be participating in the symposium.
The symposion beginns with a Weinberg-portrait-concert on Friday May 11th, 7 p.m. in which chamber musical works by Weinberg are played. The lectures and discussions start on Saturday, May 12th, 9 a.m. The lectures as well as the concerts will be held in the music room of the Musicological Institute, Neue Rabenstrasse 13, 20354 Hamburg.

Following upon the remarkable 35-year tenure of the previous director, there is an opportunity for a new librarian to build upon that foundation and to re-imagine the place and function of the music library as a vibrant learning destination that sits at the intersection of the curriculum, technology, and the library's collection.

CFP: Johann Ludwig Krebs (1713-1780): Life and Works, Weimar, Oct 2013
Johann Ludwig Krebs (1713-1780):
Life and Works
Symposium, Weimar, Liszt School of Music, 12-13 October 2013
Call for Papers
Johann Ludwig Krebs (1713-1780) was probably Johann Sebastian Bach’s most important student. The son of Johann Tobias Krebs, he was baptized in Buttelstedt near Weimar and worked as an organ player first in Zeitz and later, from 1756 until his death, in Altenburg/Thuringia. As a composer Krebs’ music can be located within a musical style that was based on Bach’s techniques. However, it also adapted the new aesthetic premises that occurred in the decades of the middle of the eighteenth century. The record and maintenance of Bach’s works for organ are but a few of Krebs’ historical accomplishments. His oeuvre mainly consists of works for organ: these have already been the subject of musicological research, beginning in the middle of the twentieth century. By contrast, his masses, cantatas, motets, and arias, as well as his works for orchestra and chamber works, have so far received only little attention. Until now, these works have not been subject to analytical and hermeneutic
al ap
proaches, nor given contemporary contextualization.
On the occasion of the 300th anniversary of Johann Ludwig Krebs’ birth, the Academia Musicalis Thuringiae (AMT), the umbrella organization for Early Music in Thuringia, in cooperation with the Institute for Musicology Weimar-Jena, will organize a musicological symposium entitled Johann Ludwig Krebs (1713-1780): Life and Legacy. It will take place on 12 and 13 October 2013. The aim of the symposium is to foster musicological research on the composer, his works and his biographical environment.
We invite scholars from all disciplines to send an abstract of no more than 200 words as a Word document to symposium at amt-ev.de.
The deadline for submissions is 31 May 2012.

CFP - Center for Indian Film Music Studies
Inaugural conference – Center for Indian Film Music Studies, Chennai, India
Call for papers:
The Center for Indian Film Music Studies (CIFMS), the research wing of the School of Indian Film Music will hold its first annual conference on the 27th May 2012 at Chennai.
Studies on Indian film music are still in its rudimentary stage. There is neither a university program devoted to Indian film music nor a journal dedicated to the exploration of this phenomenon. Indian film music has received minimal consideration from international popular music studies and existing paradigms of popular music studies may not be adequate in
understanding the culture, economies, and histories of India’s film music. The new Center for Indian Film Music Studies is earnest about raising academic interest in Indian film music studies and facilitating knowledge synthesis between academics and practitioners. The CIFMS annual
conference is meant to foster scholarly conversations surrounding the emerging field of
Indian film music studies.
The conference theme “Plurality” thematizes the synthesis of multiple creative, technical, historical and socio-cultural influences that form the basis of creative music practice in Indian filmdom.
The main focus will center around creative musicology, technology and space.
Areas of interest include (but are not limited to):
- (New) methodologies for the study of film soundtracks/songs;
- Creativity and Performance;
- Collectivity and Synchronisation;
- Technology and production;
- Historical studies and evolution;
- Society and Culture
Program committee:
Pashcall de Paor (University of Glamorgan, United Kingdom)
Prof. Kristen Rudisell (Bowling Green State University, Ohio)
Divakar Subramaniam (University of Glamorgan/School of Indian Film
Music)
Academics, practitioners and postgraduate students are invited to submit papers proposals (20 minutes). Each submission should include the following information: author(s) name(s), academic affiliation(s), e- mail address, title of presentation, abstract (300 words max.), a short CV, and a list of technological requirements (overhead, power point, etc). CIFMS will support remote paper presentations through Skype this year.
All proposals must be submitted by 01 May 2012 to

SAM 2013 Session CFP: “Music in the Eighteenth-Century Atlantic World”
Call for Papers
Panel: “Music in the Eighteenth-Century Atlantic World”
Society for American Music 2013 Conference
Musical life in eighteenth-century America was indelibly shaped by Atlantic cultural currents. The same vessels that carried goods and people also transmitted music, and unprecedented expansion in the print sphere joined oral traditions to circulate music around the Atlantic world. Music connected nascent nations transatlantically; certain cities served as key destinations for musical migrants in the circum-Atlantic world; and individual locations became cis-Atlantic musical nodes whose local distinctiveness were tied to the broader cultural trends of the Atlantic world.
This session locates American music in the Atlantic world during the long eighteenth century. How did American musical practices change with the increasing availability of music from Europe? What music repertories traveled from the colonies to other destinations around the Atlantic Ocean? Did especially strong musical ties connect particular loci in the Atlantic world? What do transatlantic musical trends tell us about American cultural self-fashioning vis-à-vis the broader Atlantic world? We invite papers that draw on insights from the robust field of Atlantic History, and welcome topics that engage with the concepts of transatlantic, circum-Atlantic, and cis-Atlantic musical connections before the 1830s. These three concepts were first outlined by historian David Armitage in his introduction to The British Atlantic World, 1500-1800 (2002), and papers in dialogue with Armitage’s introduction are encouraged.
350-word proposals for 20-minute presentations should be sent to Glenda.Goodman@gmail.com by 14 May 2012.

CFP: The Enduring Challenge of Rousseaus Thought, Colorado Springs, Dec 2012
CALL FOR PAPERS
The Enduring Challenge of Rousseau’s Thought
Tercentenary Conference
Held by The Colorado College and
the Rousseau Association/Association Rousseau
Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
December 13 – 15, 2012
The object of this conference is to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Rousseau's birth by bringing renewed attention to his genuine and yet at times still undervalued stature as a scientist, philosopher, and artist. We hope that the work presented will serve to showcase how very deeply and subtly Rousseau thought, to explore some of the complex problems that he treats so radically and profoundly, to bring to life the vigorous debates in which he is engaged with his most thoughtful contemporaries and predecessors, and to demonstrate the subtlety and depth of discipline that he brought to his many endeavors.
In accord with the spirit and past practice of the Rousseau Association, submissions are welcome in a wide variety of fields including, but not limited to, political philosophy, philosophy, music, history, the history of ideas, eighteenth-century studies, history of science, literature, and religious studies.
Proposals (title and short summary) in English or French, for papers (to be presented orally in 15-20 minutes) should be sent to the Conference Organizer, Eve Grace, preferably by email: egrace at coloradocollege.edu, or by fax at 719-389-6586, or by mail to: Eve Grace, Political Science Department, Colorado College, 14 East Cache la Poudre, Colorado Springs, CO 80903 USA.
The deadline for receipt of proposals is May 15, 2012. Proposals will be reviewed by the Steering Committee (Professors Eve Grace, Christopher Kelly, Ourida Mostefai, and John Scott), and a decision will be communicated by June 15th. A preliminary program for the conference will be available in September 2012.

Music and Power: Historical Problems and Perspectives in Russia, Eastern Europe and Eurasia
Miami University (Oxford, Ohio)
February 28-March 2, 2013
Sponsored by the Havighurst Center for Russian and Post-Soviet Studies,
and the Departments of Music, the School of Fine Arts, and the Jewish Arts and Culture Series (Posen Foundation)
Organizers: Dr. Rebecca Mitchell, Dr. Ricardo Averbach and the Havighurst Center for Russian and Post-Soviet Studies
>From the time of Plato if not before, the fraught relationship between music and power has attracted commentary, discussion and debate. Focusing primarily on the lands of Russia, Eastern Europe and Eurasia, this conference will unite scholars from across the disciplines to examine how power relations and musical expression have mutually informed and shaped each other over time. Those in positions of power have traditionally sought to control music’s communicative and transformative potential – either by directly limiting it (perhaps most noticeably when censors have declared a work or composer “unsuitable” for ideological reasons), or by harnessing it for their own ends. But music has also been employed as a means of resisting or undermining power relations of all kinds. Thus while music and power are clearly entwined within the public sphere, this relationship has also found expression in more subtle forms of human interaction and has shaped the expression of multiple politi
cally
relevant identities (national, ethnic, religious). This conference will address important questions regarding the multifaceted interrelationship between music and power, including but not limited to: Who decides what constitutes “suitable” music within a given social, political and historical context? What role has censorship played in shaping musical expression? How has music been implicated in abuses of power? How has music been used to advance imperialist ambitions? How did musical expressions of “national” unity support or undermine the political and social structures of multi-ethnic empires? What impact has musical nationalism had on the social and political contexts in which it emerged? How have identity politics shaped musical creativity? How has music been employed in resistance to social, cultural, national or hierarchical control?
We invite submissions from scholars interested in developing cross-disciplinary approaches to the study of music in human history and culture. In addition to scholarly discussion and exchange among panelists, the conference will include two keynote speakers: Dr. Richard Taruskin (UC-Berkeley) and Dr. James Loeffler (University of Virginia). A symphonic performance, conducted by Dr. Ricardo Averbach, will be held the evening of March 1, 2013 in Oxford.
We encourage proposals both from young researchers who have completed their dissertation research (ABD) and from established scholars in any field of the humanities or social sciences. As we plan to publish a conference volume based on papers presented, all participants will be required to submit their completed paper one month prior to the conference.
All presenters will be provided with accommodations in Oxford, ground transportation to and from the airport, and partial travel funding (up to $400 for domestic travel, $800 for international travel).
To be considered for the conference, submit an abstract of approximately 300 words and a short CV to mitcher3 at muohio.edu by September 1, 2012. Please include “2013 Music and Power Conference” in the subject line. Selected papers will be announced by October 1, 2012.

Musicorum et cantorum magna est distantia? La prassi della polifonia vocale all'epoca di Palestrina
Il "Coro della Facoltà di Musicologia", in collaborazione con la Facoltà di Musicologia (Università di Pavia/Cremona) presenta un seminario di studi dedicato alla prassi esecutiva della polifonia vocale sacra nel secondo Cinquecento. Peculiarità del seminario è la presenza di musicologi e direttori di coro, entrambi specialisti del repertorio in esame, che analizzeranno da diverse prospettive i fattori che interagiscono nell'esecuzione della polifonia tardocinquecentesca.
Le relazioni verteranno su argomenti quali il tactus, le proportiones, la policoralità, la musica ficta, l'ornamentazione, ecc.
All'interno delle sessioni di studio sono previsti anche interventi musicali corali volti ad esemplificare gli argomenti trattati.
Il comitato scientifico del seminario è composto da Ingrid Pustijanac, Francesco Saggio e Rodobaldo Tibaldi.
L'incontro si terrà i prossimi 26-27-28 aprile, presso la Sala Conferenze della Biblioteca Statale di Cremona.
L'evento si inserisce nelle celebrazioni "Voci da non scordare. Dieci anni di canto corale", organizzate dal Coro della Facoltà di Musicologia in occasione del decimo anniversario della sua fondazione (2002-2012).
I programmi dettagliati del seminario, con l'elenco completo degli interventi, e delle celebrazioni del Coro sono reperibili all'indirizzo:

Arts and Ethics, October 18-19, 2012
The 6th Verge Conference at the School of the Arts, Media + Culture
Trinity Western University, Langley, British Columbia, Canada
There is long history surrounding the relationship between the arts and
ethics. The arts affect individual identities, communities, and
relationships between people and their environments. Each theory of the
relation between arts and ethics leads to different views of the ways the
arts are experienced and gives rise to different responsibilities for
producers and experiencers of the arts.
This conference explores the relations between arts and ethics through
questions including:
* Do artistic forms enact ethics? If so, are some artistic forms Œmore
ethical¹ than others?
* Are there ethical responsibilities to art?
* What ethical responsibilities do artists have?
* Do arts educators have ethical responsibilities?
* What is the distinction (if there is one) between Œarts and ethics¹ and
Œarts and morals/morality¹?
* Can the arts make communities Œmore ethical¹?
* Can the arts help or harm the development of ethical reasoning?
* How do the arts present ethical responses to real life situations?
* How have discourses about the arts ignored issues pertaining to ethics?
Keynote Speakers
* Prof. Terry Lindvall, Virginia Wesleyan College
* Prof. Lambert Zuidervaart, Institute for Christian Studies and
University of Toronto
The deadline for proposals is June 15, 2012. For more information, visit
