Registration is now open for the conference ‘Musicological Societies as Intermediaries between Society, Musical Life and Academia’.

The KVNM (Royal Society for Music History of The Netherlands) celebrates its 150th anniversary in 2018. The jubilee of the KVNM as the world’s oldest musicological society forms an excellent opportunity to rally sister societies from Europe and other colleagues to discuss the various forms that the role of intermediary take on, nationally and internationally, bilaterally and multilaterally.

We are very pleased to welcome representatives of musicological societies of England, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Switzerland, Greece, Sweden, Estonia, Norway, Croatia and Ireland as well as of the four R-Projects: RISM, RILM, RIdIM and RIPM. We are also honored that the keynote speeches will be delivered by Dorothea Baumann, general secretary of the IMS, and Krisztina Lajosi, Senior Lecturer in Cultural History in the Department of European Studies at the University of Amsterdam.

The purpose of the symposium is to stimulate international cooperation among musicological societies, embarking upon the future with new élan as intermediaries in society, musical life and scholarship. Therefore we will conclude the symposium with the foundation of a new network: Network of European Musicological Societies or NEMS.
