[ANPPOM-L] Last Call: Instrumental Music and the Industrial Revolution

[Carlos Palombini]

Dear all,

we'd like to remember that the Deadline for sending abstracts
approaching (30 October 2005).

Instrumental Music and the Industrial Revolution

International Conference, Cremona, 1-3 July 2006

Ad Parnassum Journal

Fondazione-Stichting P.A. Locatelli

Ut Orpheus Edizioni

Call for papers

The Symposium aims to investigate different aspects of the
relationship between the Industrial Revolution, with its peculiar
ideological and political values and social needs, and the aesthetic-
musical sphere. An awareness of this relationship in specific cases
could greatly assist the stylistic and comparative scrutiny of
composers like Haydn, Boccherini, Clementi and Viotti, and perhaps
might even generate some welcome de-mystifying repercussions
concerning the legitimacy of certain primacies of dubious acquisition.

The programme committee encourages submission within the following
areas, although other topics are welcome:
* The commercial development of musical instruments
* Private music-making and the 'middle class'
* The composer and his 'public'
* The musician, the musical institutions and the social background
* Music publishing and the 'new market'

Keynote Speakers
* Prof. Leon Plantinga (Yale University, New Haven - CT): "Music,
Mechanization, and the Middle Class".

* Prof. Simon McVeigh (Goldsmiths College, London): "London and the
Industrial Revolution"

Papers are limited to 20 minutes in length, with time following for
discussion. The official languages of the conference are English and
Italian. For proposals please submit an abstract of no more than 300
words and one page of biography. All proposals should be submitted by
email NO LATER THAN Sunday 30 OCTOBER 2005 to Massimiliano Sala
(msala em adparnassum.org).

Selected papers presented at the conference will be published in a
volume of proceedings in the series AD PARNASSUM STUDIES (Ut Orpheus
Edizioni, Bologna).
