Dear Colleagues,

First, apologies in advance for an error in the url in the previous Call 
for Papers. The correct url for the “Participant Information Form” is
http://www.wmich.edu/medieval/congress/submissions/index.html#PIF . The 
url has been corrected below, as well.

The program committee for Musicology at Kalamazoo (Cathy Ann Elias, Mary 
Wolinski, and Julia Wingo Shinnick) is pleased to announce the following 
sessions for the 45th International Congress on Medieval Studies, May 
13-16, 2010:

*I. *Motets and the Like;
*II. *Musical Instruments and Performance;
*III. *The Music Theorist as Polymath;
*IV. *Text(s) and Music, Music(s) and Text;
*V. *Chant and Liturgy;
*VI. *Performances: Indoors and Outdoors;
*VII. *Music and Visual Culture;
*VIII. *Medievalisms and Music: Yesterday and Today;
*IX. *Source Studies

We hope many if not all of these sessions can foster some real dialogue 
between musicologists and scholars in other areas, so we encourage 
specialists in fields other than Music to submit proposals. Please keep 
in mind as well that we intend these session titles mostly as "hooks" on 
which a multitude of proposals can be placed rather than limitations, so 
send us your best work (as the editors of JAMS are fond of saying), even 
if it doesn't precisely seem to fit one of these topics--we may be able 
to make it work anyway, and we'll try to find a place for as many good 
proposals as we can.

Abstracts should be sent by 13 September to Cathy Ann Elias, program 
committee chair, at the address below. Electronic submissions are 
welcome. Please write in the subject part of the e-mail the following:

You'll also need to complete and submit the “Participant Information 
Form” from the conference website, available at 
http://www.wmich.edu/medieval/congress/submissions/index.html#PIF . This 
is very important, not only because it is your only chance to make A-V 
requests, but because it is required by the Medieval Institute. Please 
note that the form appears at the bottom of the page. Be aware that this 
is a PDF document; if you don't have Adobe Acrobat (the writer, not just 
the reader) on your computer, you cannot save a completed form, so 
you'll have to print it and send it via snail-mail or fax.

If you have any questions, please contact Cathy Ann Elias. We look 
forward to seeing you in Kalamazoo next May.
