CALL FOR PAPERS

The last decade has seen an unprecedented burgeoning of research on musical
performance in the fields of musicology and music psychology. There is now
an extensive and continually expanding body of theoretical knowledge about
the practice strategies of performers, the motor skills involved in playing
an instrument, the psychological and social factors that influence the ways
in which performers work, and the acoustical properties of so-called
expressive performance.  Furthermore, within musicology a sophisticated and
increasingly mainstream discourse exists with regard to the relationship
between performance and analysis, and issues of historical performance.
This accumulating research has led to the establishment of performance
studies as a musicological discipline in its own right. The aim of this
conference is to address issues of performance in relation to a particular
period in music history and its legacy, namely the Romantic period. Its main
focus will be on the performance of Romantic repertoire, and on the
influences that musical Romanticism in all its dimensions has had on musical
performance.

Proposals for individual papers or panels are invited on any aspect of
performing Romantic music, and the relationship between Romanticism and
music performance.

Papers and panels might focus on such issues as:

. analysis in relation to the performance of music composed during the long
nineteenth century
. composer-performers early recordings of Romantic music
. national traditions and institutional frameworks
. pedagogy
. performance criticism
. performance editions
. performer-editors
. performing Romantic music in the 21st century
. Romantic conceptions of the performer's role
. Romantic repertoire
. Romanticizing early music in performance
. rubato, expression marks, phrasing and articulation
. schools of playing
. theories of interpretation and expressivity in performance
. teachers and their pupils
. virtuosity and work character

Proposals on other relevant topics are also welcome.

Papers and discussions will take place in English.
