The Middle East and Central Asia Music forum is open to researchers,
students and anyone interested in the music and culture of the region.
In the spirit of fostering dialogue and interdisciplinarity, we hope
that the issues discussed at the forum will be of interest to a broad
audience, including musicologists, ethnomusicologists and other
researchers in the arts, humanities and social sciences. In addition,
we welcome those working on other aspects of Middle Eastern and
Central Asian culture broadly speaking (dance, visual arts, media,
film, literature, etc.)
Advance booking is requested via Valerie James at [log in to unmask]; a
contribution to costs of £10 is requested on the door. Attendance for
students and the unwaged is free.
