HAYDN 2009: A BICENTENARY CONFERENCE
Budapest & Eszterháza, 27 to 30 May 2009
The Hungarian Musicological Society, the Institute for Musicology of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and the Hungarian Haydn Society are pleased to announce an international conference to commemorate the bicentenary of Joseph Haydn’s death. The conference will be held in two locations: the Institute for Musicology in Budapest; and the Esterházy Palace at Eszterháza, where the composer spent much of his professional life.
The members of the programme committee are: Armin Raab (Haydn-Institut, Cologne), László Somfai (Institute for Musicology, Budapest), James Webster (Cornell University, Ithaca, NY)
Presentations covering a broad range of Haydn scholarship are welcome, although papers exploring the following topic areas are especially encouraged:
- Haydn’s musical style: between tradition and innovation
- Haydn in context: the composer’s oeuvre in the light of the aesthetic and political debates of his time
- Haydn and Eszterháza (with special attention to the genres closely associated with the venue, e. g. opera)
- Questions of performance practice in Haydn’s music
- Haydn reception in the ‘long’ 19th century
Papers should be approximately twenty minutes in length, and must be read in either of the two official languages of the conference, English and German. Proposals, including a 250-word abstract, should be sent as e-mail attachments by 30 June 2008 to one of the organizers at the following addresses:
Zoltán Farkas: farkas.zoltan at radio.hu
Péter Halász: halasz at zti.hu
Balázs Mikusi: bm86 at cornell.edu
Revised versions of the papers will be considered for publication in a special issue of Studia Musicologica.

"Irony was a counterweight against the confidence with which the British believed in their own civilization and wanted it to be acknowledged as superior by the rest of the world. The triumphant tone with which the Germans speak of 'culture', which only they possess, while the rest must make do with 'civilization', needs an equally, if not stronger, ironic distance." (Wolf Lepenies, The Seduction of Culture in German History, 2006)
