Reminder: CMPCP Visiting Fellowships Scheme - Phase 3 (1 April 2013 to 30
September 2013)
Applications are invited for short-term Visiting Fellowships based at the
AHRC Research Centre for Musical Performance as Creative Practice (CMPCP).
These Fellowships are offered on a competitive basis to musicologists,
musicians and those working in cognate fields from the UK and overseas who
wish to spend up to three months undertaking collaborative research at any
one of the Centre's partner institutions, i.e. University of Cambridge,
King's College London, University of Oxford, and Royal Holloway, University
of London. Visiting Fellows will have the opportunity to gain exposure to
CMPCP's research activities, to share their work with CMPCP staff and
students both at the institution where they are based and throughout CMPCP,
and to contribute to the activities supported by the Performance Studies
Network. Each Visiting Fellow will be able to claim for eligible maintenance
expenses incurred during the period of the Fellowship up to a stated
maximum; relevant travel costs to and/or within the UK will also be
reimbursed, subject to prior approval.
The research undertaken during a CMPCP Visiting Fellowship must address,
whether directly or indirectly, one or more of the following research
questions, which lie at the heart of CMPCP's work in general:
-How is musical performance creative, and what knowledge is creatively
embodied in musical performance?
-How does music in performance - and the very act of performance - take
shape over time?
-How does understanding musical performance as a creative practice vary
across different global contexts, idioms and performance conditions?
Applicants for Visiting Fellowships are expected to have completed a
doctorate prior to applying or to have equivalent professional experience
prior to applying.
The Visiting Fellowship scheme is divided into five phases. Phase 3 will
begin on 1 April 2013 and end on 30 September 2013. Applications for Phase 3
must be submitted by 5 pm on Friday 30 November 2012.

which should be carefully noted by prospective applicants.
