  • Programme and Abstracts
    British Forum for Ethnomusicology 2017 Annual Conference Department of Music University of Sheffield PROGRAMME AND ABSTRACTS The Diamond, Sheffield 20-23 April, 2017 1 Welcome from the BFE Chair, Barley Norton: On behalf of the British Forum for Ethnomusicology, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our Annual Conference at the University of Sheffield. The Music Department at the University of Sheffield has a long, distinguished record for teaching and research in ethnomusicology, and this year is the third time the BFE Annual Conference has been held at Sheffield; the first was in 1985 and the second in 2000. Sheffield is renowned for its thriving folk music scene and the BFE conference immediately follows a one-day conference on “Digital Folk”. This forms part of a large-scale research project at Sheffield University, and gives delegates the opportunity to attend both events and explore dialogues between their related themes. The suggested talking point of “Tradition Today” for the Annual Conference reflects the research strengths of Sheffield’s ethnomusicology programme while inviting delegates from around the world to share their insights on aspects of tradition and innovation in music and in ethnomusicology itself. Proposers have also been invited to submit research in any area of ethnomusicology, and the conference programme amply reflects the diverse interests of the BFE, from innovation in ethnomusicology and traditional music to musical migration, from ecoactivism to digital research and practice, and from soundscapes to the ethics of studying music and violence. BFE conferences are a chance for us to socialise and make music together, as well as share our research, and the stimulating programme of papers and panels is complemented by a host of other exciting events.

  • November 19–20, 2020 32Nd Annual Festival of New Musicals 1
    320nd NOVEMBER 19–20, 2020 32ND ANNUAL FESTIVAL OF NEW MUSICALS 1 FROM THE NATIONAL ALLIANCE FOR MUSICAL THEATRE’S PRESIDENT WELCOME TO OUR 32ND ANNUAL FESTIVAL OF NEW MUSICALS! I look forward to this journey every year: usually a physical journey to NYC to see old friends, meet new ones, and immerse myself in the exhilaration of NAMT’s Festival. This year, of course, will be different: I’ll travel to the world of the Festival while in Buffalo, but it will be just as eye-opening, poignant, enjoyable and provocative. I never know where the Festival will take me, but I know that during these two days I will feel a surprising and strong gamut of emotions. Not only will I be entertained and challenged, but I will also have perspectives and opinions reinforced one minute and completely altered the next. We’re delighted that you’re here to join us for these two days—truly just the beginning of the journey for these unique musical theatre pieces and their extraordinarily talented writers. I congratulate each of the writers who participated in this event and thank them for their creativity, intelligence, talent, and courage, which is the lifeblood of our artistic industry. We hope you’ll want to blaze a development path with them. Every year the Festival inspires many long-term relationships among writers, theatres, producers, directors and performers, and we expect this year will again initiate many partnerships, in new and varied ways. NAMT believes that the best way to encourage that ongoing development is to give our writers every possible opportunity to showcase their best work.
