·
present practice-led research;
·
involve the participation of leading practitioners and performers;
·
explore the interface between research and professional practice;
·
address issues of current political and strategic interest to the sector;
·
are linked thematically to keynote speakers’ areas of expertise;
·
disseminate kinds of research hitherto under-represented at the RMA annual conference;
·
are promoted by RMA’s study groups and sibling organisations concerned with research in music and cognate areas (e.g. members of the Music Research Consortium UK).
