International Conference “Sones de ida y vuelta”: colonial musics on
debate (1492-1898)

Tuesday 3–Thursday 5 December 2013
INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF ANDALUSIA, Baeza (Spain)

Call for Papers

The present Colloquium aims both to present a critical assessment of
recent research in the field and to promote new perspectives into colonial
musics in its broadest conceptual and chronological scope. All aspects of
current colonial musics scholarship will be drawn together, with an
emphasis on the processes of musical exchange between the Iberian
Peninsula and the Americas from 1492 to 1898.

Potential topics for papers include, but are not limited to:

* methodologies, historiography  and sources to study processes of musical
exchange between the Iberian Peninsula and the New World
* models of musical patronage: from cathedrals and missions to salons and
theatres
* migrations of musicians: single and round trips
* circulation, reception and transformation of imported repertories
* exportation/importation of musical instruments, organological models and
performance practices
* inter influence processes: European models, Iberian models and
autochthonous traditions, learned vs popular musics
* imperialism/criollism/nationalism: representation of identities,
ethnicities and minorites in the Iberian and Latin American musics
* continuities and changes of colonial musics along the nineteenth century
* recovery of colonial musics from a historically informed performance:
constructions and ideologies
