SysMus12 – Fifth International Conference of Students of Systematic Musicology
May 24th-26th, 2012, The Université de Montréal, Canada
Organized by graduate students, the SysMus conference allows young researchers in systematic musicology at the master’s and doctoral levels to present their work in the form of papers, poster sessions and online publications. Graduate students are encouraged to submit a proposal in English (maximum 2 pages) for either a formal paper or a poster session. Papers should be twenty minutes in length and may be given in either English or French. A ten minute question period will follow.
Allying epistemological, scientific principals and methodologies with a humanistic, critical approach, systematic musicology is interdisciplinary in character. As such, we have provided a (non-exhaustive) list of possible themes to be explored: the role of institutions in the dissemination of music; public behaviour and reception; music and media; music and society; perception and cognition; multi-modal perception; emotion; analysis of expressivity in performance; gesture and movement; music pedagogy; musical structure; methodology; music and language; music and technology.
Proposal applications are now closed

7th Nordic Music Therapy Congress
13-17 June 2012: University of Jyväskylä, Finland.
The title of the congress, “Music therapy models, methods and techniques”, refers to the fundamental basis of music therapy, which we aim to explore from various perspectives. We encourage researchers, clinicians, trainers and students to join together and share their findings, expertise and experiences. The main focus will be around the title of the congress, but we welcome interdisciplinary perspectives as well, and hope to have many music psychologists, music educators, musicologists, and psychotherapists among us. The congress will include invited keynote lectures, oral presentations, poster sessions, workshops and symposia arranged around specific themes.
