Call for Papers (reminder)
"Gaspar van Weerbeke: Works and Contexts"
June 29 – July 1, 2017
University of Salzburg
Salzburg, Austria
Deadline for the submission of proposals: January 31, 2017
Following the recent completion of the editorial work for the publication
of the final volumes of Gaspar van Weerbeke’s “Collected Works”, this
conference aims to revitalize research on this long neglected Flemish
composer. We are interested in papers which contextualize Gaspar and his
work with that of his contemporaries at the Sforza court in Milan and in
the Papal Chapel in Rome, including Josquin, Compère, and Gaffurius. Topics
concerning Gaspar’s life, analysis of his music, or source studies would
also be welcome. The conference will also hold a reconstruction workshop
for the songs attributed to “Gaspart” surviving uniquely in FlorC 2442.
Keynote addresses will be given by Klaus Pietschmann and Fabrice Fitch.
More information, including a catalog of works and sources, may be found on
the website of the editorial project, www.gaspar-van-weerbeke.sbg.ac.at.
Those interested are welcome to request personal access to some of the
currently unpublished editorial materials. We especially want to encourage
young scholars to engage in research on Gaspar and his music.
Please send titles and abstracts for consideration to [log in to unmask]
Alternatively, let us know if you are interested in taking part in the
reconstruction workshop or would like to be receive email updates about the
conference. The conference language is English, and basic accommodation
will be provided for all speakers.
We look forward to seeing you in Salzburg!
