May 7-9, 2025, Lisbon
NOVA Contemporary Music Meeting (NCMM)
International conference
Deadline: October 31, 2024
This year, the NCMM invites contributions focusing on the wide-ranging theme of ‘Today’s Music Memory’ and its related aspects. Memory is a fundamental element in the processes of music creation, performance, reception, and study. As the musical landscape evolves quickly, the methods of remembering and engaging with music from both past and present eras become increasingly significant.
The study of today’s music memory encompasses a large range of contexts and disciplines, including live performances, recordings, traditional scores, digital archives, personal memories and collective histories. This theme facilitates an in-depth examination of the mechanisms through which contemporary music is remembered, preserved, and transformed, and how these mechanisms influence our current understanding and experience of music.
The conference welcomes papers on a wide range of topics related to contemporary music studies and practices. We invite submissions on any aspect in this field, including composition, music and technology, auditory perception, music history, analysis and theory, musical genres and practices, and cultural issues.
Topics may include, but are not limited to:
Musical Composition Practices, Performance and Reception
Music History, Theory and Analysis
Philosophy of Music and Aesthetics
Musicology, Intertextuality and Authenticity
Auditory Perception and Cognition
Musical Sound Transcription, Representation and Notation
Sound Technologies and the Music Industry
Music and Image
Sound Art, Installations and Exhibitions
Soundscape and Sound Ecology
Documentation and Preservation of Musical Heritage
Music and emergent cultures and societies, cultural heritage, and inclusive societies
The conference language is English. Proposals should offer original contributions based on current research or work in progress. All papers will be 20 minutes followed by 5 minutes’ discussion time. You will be asked to provide contact details, paper title, an abstract of max. 500 words and 2 to 3 keywords, a biography of max. 150 words, and a list of main publications (up to 10 entries).
Submissions from students and early-career postdoctoral researchers are particularly encouraged.
