DePauw University is pleased to announce a symposium on "The Interaction 
of Poetry and Music," on February 18, 2006.  The symposium is being held 
in conjunction with Music of the 21st Century, an annual festival 
celebrating contemporary composers.  Scholars from the fields of music 
and literature are invited to submit paper proposals for this symposium.

Jake Heggie will be the featured composer at the festival. The composer 
of the operas Dead Man Walking and The End of the Affair, Heggie has won 
numerous awards and honors.  His songs and operas have been performed by 
internationally celebrated artists such as Renée Fleming, Frederica von 
Stade, and Bryn Terfel.  Previous composers honored at Music of the 21st 
Century include George Crumb, Tanía León, and Augusta Read Thomas.  This 
year's festival is spread over five days.  It will include student and 
faculty performances of contemporary works, a lecture/performance by the 
  composer, and public masterclasses on composition and song performance 
led by Jake Heggie.  A detailed schedule can be found at

The symposium will feature a keynote address by Deborah Stein. Dr. Stein

contributed to a book, Engaging Music: Essays in Music Analysis. Her 
book Poetry Into Song: Performance and Analysis of Lieder, coauthored

1996 by Choice.
