> CALL FOR PAPERS: Royal Musical Association 53rd Annual Conference, Department of Music, University of Liverpool.
>
> Thursday 7th to Saturday 9th September 2017.
>
> The programme committee invites proposals for themed sessions (90 minutes), individual papers (20 minutes), lecture-recitals (30 minutes) and posters (A1 display sheet). For themed sessions, any format—including sound installations, performance-based presentations, composition workshops, and so on—may be proposed, as long as it fits into a 90-minute slot. The committee welcomes proposals from leading scholars and practitioners as well as early-career researchers. It also encourages poster displays, with or without scheduled question-and-answer sessions, on current projects of all kinds. The aim is to represent the entire scope of current scholarly and creative musical research.
