International Chopinological Conference: The integration of a work: from miniature to large scale

26 to 28 September 2018, Varsovie

We are very pleased to announce the call for abstract submissions to the conference “The integration of a work: from miniature to large scale”.

Proposed thematic areas:

I Genres

1. Genre as a way of shaping the music

2. Genre as a method of social communication: the relationship between audience and artist, the impact of reception on decisions concerning genre, form and the shaping of musical elements

3. Blurring the boundaries between genres – standard or innovative composition techniques

– popular elements in post-Classical genres

– the influence of dance forms on non-dance genres

– the merging of features from different genres in cyclic and non-cyclic forms

– the Romantics and their forerunners – the distinctiveness of Romantic composers

II Form and structure

1. The influence of the miniature on the shaping of musical form -incl. sonata form, other large forms, cyclic forms

2. The musical work as an opus. Methods of integration

3. Structuralizing musical works

– symmetry vs linear thinking in musical structure

– the use of standard and non-standard forms in genres

– building tension and climaxes in a musical work

III Culture and communication

Aspects of pedagogy and its impact on composers’ creative attitudes

– how teaching methods influenced compositional processes (e.g. Chopin and Mendelssohn vs Berlioz and Liszt), how musical training influenced musical material

– the evolution of pedagogy in nineteenth-century Europe: from individual relations to conservatory classes

IV Elements of reception

Analytical traditions – analytical methods compared (concluding with a round table discussion)
