*Call for Expressions of Interest in Hosting the Annual and One-Day
Conferences of the British Forum for Ethnomusicology *
*Please respond by 1 July 2019 *
The British Forum for Ethnomusicology (BFE) invites expressions of interest
from institutions interested in hosting the BFE Annual and One-Day
Conferences in 2020 and 2021.
*Annual Conferences 2021*
BFE Annual Conferences run for four days (from Thursday to Sunday) and are
usually held in April during the Easter vacation period. Annual Conferences
typically have a theme, although delegates may present research on any
subject of interest to ethnomusicologists.
A summary of past Annual Conferences can be found at
https://bfe.org.uk/conference-archive-annual. The Elphinstone Institute,
University of Aberdeen will host the 2019 gathering on ‘Collaborative
Ethnomusicology <https://bfe.org.uk/conf/collaborative-ethnomusicology>’;
and Bath Spa University will host the 2020 gathering.
*One-Day Conferences 2020 *
BFE One-Day Conferences are usually held on Saturdays in November (although
late October and early December are also possibilities). They are more
narrowly themed than Annual Conferences and focus on specific, sometimes
emerging, areas of ethnomusicologicial enquiry. Interdisciplinary
approaches are encouraged.
A summary of past One-Day Conferences can be found at
https://bfe.org.uk/conference-archive-one-day. The 2019 conference is hoped
to be a collaboration between the BFE and SFE, to be held at City,
University of London.
*Expressing Interest *
For further information or informal conversations about the possibility of
hosting these conferences, please contact Matthew Machin-Autenrieth at
[log in to unmask] (in relation to the annual conference) and Stephen Wilford
at [log in to unmask] (in relation to the one-day conference). We would be
happy to meet to discuss hosting during the forthcoming Annual Conference
at the University of Aberdeen.
*To express interest, please send no more than one side of paper outlining *
• a proposed theme (in the case of the One-Day Conference);
• who will be responsible for planning the event;
• the advantages of hosting it at your institution.
