CALL FOR
PAPERS
Honoring
the 50th anniversary since the passing of Manolis Kalomiris (1883-1962), founder
of the Greek National School of Music, the Faculty of Music Studies of the
University of Athens and the Music Library of Greece “Lilian Voudouri”
organize a musicological conference, which will take place in Athens between 18
and 20 January 2013.
The
title, reflecting the main issue of this conference, will be the “National
Element in Music”. Although the diverse aspects on the National Schools of
Music that were cultivated from mid-19th-century onwards constitute the focal
point of the conference, the committee will also consider any other approaches,
especially those related more generally to the presence of folk element in music,
as well as to issues concerning notions such as national identity and music, or
even patriotism, nationalism, traditionalism in music life and populism in music.
Proposals may address the following aspects of the conference’s general theme:
National schools of music
The presence of folk element in music
National identity and music
Aspects of patriotism, nationalism, traditionalism in music life
Populism and music
Politics and music
The conference will be held in Athens with the venue being announced in
due time. There will be no fee for participating at the conference.
