The conference coincides with the world premiere of Sergei Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 6, which will be performed at LSU. Incomplete and unpublished upon Prokofiev's death, the piano concerto has recently been finished by Norbert Palej, with the assistance of Gabriel Prokofiev (Sergei Prokofiev's grandson). The present conference aims to expand our current knowledge and understanding of not only the music of Prokofiev but also of Russian music, its traditions, its influences, and its continued legacy (in both Russia and in the West).

The program committee invites proposals on any aspect of Sergei Prokofiev's music (both analytical and/or historical), as well as the following themes: - Russian school of pianism Proposals are invited for individual papers or lecture-recitals, with the following guidelines: - individual papers (20 minutes long, with 10 minutes for discussion) Proposals should be prepared as follows: - Individual papers: maximum 250 words - Lecture Recitals/Performances: 250-word summary (with CV, sample recording, and presentation details).
