Mastering the Mix: A Student-led Symposium on
Interdisciplinarity in Musicology and Compositional
Practice
Wednesday 5th June, 2013
Oxford Brookes University
Call For Papers and Presentations
Oxford Brookes University Music Department is holding a one-day student-led
symposium exploring the broad theme of interdisciplinarity in both
musicology and
compositional practice on Wednesday 5th June, 2013. This event is intended
to
provide postgraduate students with an opportunity to present their recent
or current
work in a formal, but student-led setting. As such, the symposium should
provide a
stepping stone for postgraduate students hoping to present their work at
academic
conferences in the future. We also hope that the event will serve to bring
together
students from a range of different institutions and disciplinary
backgrounds in fruitful
debate and discussion.
The day will consist of presentations from students and will be concluded
by a round
table discussion featuring academics from each of Oxford Brookes’ music
research
units: OBERTO (Oxford Brookes: Exploring Research Trends in Opera), PMRU
(Popular Music Research Unit), and SARU (Sonic Art Research Unit). We hope
that
this discussion will round off the day with a suitably broad range of
perspectives on
the theme of interdisciplinarity in music and musicology.
We would like to invite submissions from students working at both masters
and PhD
level. We do not intend to limit presentations to completed research: we
also welcome
presentations of work in progress and presentations of compositional work.
In keeping
with our theme, we also invite submissions from students from disciplinary
backgrounds outside of music and musicology.
How to submit:
Please submit an abstract or presentation proposal of no more than 250
words. In the
same document as your abstract/proposal, please also include your contact
details,
including email address, and your institution (if applicable).
Presentations on the day
should last for 20 minutes, with an additional 10 minutes at the end for
questions.
Submissions should be emailed to Thomas May, with subject ‘Brookes PG
Symposium’ to:

participants with successful submissions will be notified by the end of
Monday 8th May,
2013.
To express an interest in attending the event, please contact Thomas May as
above.
