CFP deadline: December 31, 2022

Conference dates: Friday, May 19–Saturday, May 20, 2023

This two-day symposium seeks to investigate musical instruments as a source for the historical study of music theory in a global context. We invite proposals exploring the theory-bearing dimensions of musical instruments in different historical periods and across musical cultures. For a detailed description of the symposium’s aims and the proposal submission process see the attached Call for Papers.

We are delighted that Prof. Alexander Rehding (Harvard University) will deliver the symposium’s keynote address.

A symposium organized by Marcel Camprubí (PhD candidate, Music) with the generous support of the Princeton University Department of Music. Questions can be addressed at instrumentsmt -at- princeton.edu
