Registration for the RMA Study Day 'Music and Mathematics', to be held
at the University of Leeds on the 12th April 2014, is now open. This one-day
conference aims to bring together scholars whose work takes inspiration from
both fields and present a snapshot of the different ways that the affinities
between music and mathematics are being explored today. The musical fields
represented on the day include music theory, analysis, composition, philosophy,
psychology, and historical musicology; the repertoire covered ranges from
Dowland to Schoenberg to Babbitt and beyond; and the mathematical tools on
display range from group theory, graph theory, number theory, and geometry to
computation and statistics.
Please visit the conference website
http://rmamusicandmaths.wordpress.com/ for information on how to register; the
site also contains a programme, abstracts, and advice concerning travel and
accommodation.
