Call for Participation
Trinity College Dublin
The Department of Music at Trinity College Dublin is delighted to announce the international collaborative symposium, ‘Rediscovering Celtic Heritage: Musical Legacies across the Irish Sea’, taking place in Dublin, Ireland, on 26–27 February 2026.
This two-day event explores how musical identities were shaped and reimagined across the Irish Sea, with particular focus on the contributions and legacies of female musicians throughout the long nineteenth century. It aims to foster dialogues between scholarship, performance, and artistic practice, providing a platform for re-examining underrepresented strands of cultural history.
The symposium warmly welcomes contributions from scholars, performers, educators, industry leaders, curators, and artistic practitioners. Proposals are invited for:
Scholarly papers (20 minutes)
Presentations from industry leaders (20 minutes)
Presentations from artistic practitioners (20 minutes)
Lecture-recitals (30 minutes)
Possible themes may include, but are not limited to:
Repertoire recovery, editorial practices, and historiographical re-evaluation
The careers, contributions, and compositions of female musicians in the Celtic nations
The cultivation of cultural identities through music
Transnational collaboration and exchange
Cross-disciplinary artistic and creative partnerships
Approaches to heritage preservation in the twenty-first century through curation and education
Please submit a proposal of up to 250 words and a short biography (100 words) to cheryl.tan@tcd.ie by 5pm Irish time, 15 - December 2025. Notifications of acceptance will be issued in mid-January 2026.
