> Saturday, 30 October 2004
>
> Call for contributions
> Hosted by the newly established AHRB Research Centre for the History and
> Analysis of Recorded Music (CHARM) and sponsored by the SMA, this study
> day focusses on the contexts within which musical performances are
> represented, and the motivations underlying such representations. The aim
is
> to contribute to an understanding of the cultural work accomplished by the
> technologies of recording-an aim which is equally relevant to the study of
> 'art', popular, and world musics. Here are some examples of the kind of
work
> this might include:
>
> * diegetic music in films or music videos: what kind of phenomenon
> is musical performance represented to be, and how does it relate to
> narrative elements? What do films and music videos have to say about
> performers?
>
> * ethnomusicological representations of performance: how do sound or
> video recordings reflect or shape attitudes towards other cultures or
> disciplinary agendas?
>
> * commercial recording practices: to what extent, in what ways, and
> to what ends do record producers and sound engineers represent performance
> in relation to the experience of live music?
>
> If you would like to present a paper on any of these or related topics,
> please email a proposal of approximately 150/250 words to the convenor,
> Nicholas Cook ([log in to unmask]) by 1 July 2004. Proposals for
> linked papers or round tables are also welcomed.
