39th Annual Meeting
Held Jointly with the American Musicological Society,
Pacific-Southwest Chapter
February 26-27, 2005
Azusa Pacific University, Azusa CA
CALL FOR PROPOSALS (Please disseminate widely; this information will also be available on the SEMSCC website: http://ethnomus.ucr.edu/semscc1.html.)
Azusa Pacific University will host a joint conference of the Society for Ethnomusicology, Southern California Chapter (SEMSCC) and the American Musicological Society, Pacific-Southwest Chapter (PSC-AMS) on February 26-27, 2005. Local SEM and AMS members, students, faculty, and all others interested in the fields of ethnomusicology and musicology are invited to submit proposals for papers, panels, roundtable discussions, workshops, film/video screenings, performances, or collective events for the 2005 conference.
As in the past, we prefer not to stipulate any conference themes in advance, instead allowing themes to emerge from the abstracts that are submitted. Both individual paper proposals and panel submissions are welcome. However, we encourage panel submissions in which three or four papers explore different aspects of a common theme. The Program Committee also extends a special invitation to local members of the Society for American Music to submit proposals that might be of mutual interest.
Proposals from graduate students in ethnomusicology and closely related fields are especially welcome. Graduate student papers are eligible for the Ki Mantle Hood Student Prize (see the guidelines posted on the SEMSCC website at http://ethnomus.ucr.edu/semscc1.html). We also strongly encourage local faculty and new or visiting scholars to contribute to the program.
The format is 20-minute papers followed by 10 minutes of discussion.
Paper and panel proposals and abstracts must be submitted via email: Send an email with the information requested on the Individual Abstract Information Form or Panel/Roundtable Abstract & Information Form (found below) in the body of the message to hoodkat@sbcglobal.net along with abstracts. (No attachments please.)
