Many thanks to Meredith Michael and Molly Jo for their leadership and involvement in the IU Graduate Theory and Musicology Association’s Twenty-Seventh Annual Symposium of Research in Music. The free and public Symposium attracted numerous student and faculty participants from IU and beyond. Highlights from the conference included a graduate student workshop and keynote speech from Dr. Imani Mosley (University of Florida College of the Arts) keynote speech titled “‘They’re Gonna Do It Anyway’: Performing Black Male Death-as-Spectacle in the Music of Black Lives Matter.” The symposium also featured presentations by Jacobs School faculty, Prof. Frank Samarotto, “Energy, Inhalt, and the Inverting of Schenkerian Hierarchy”; Prof. Jill Rogers, “Sound Science? Sonic Technologies, Medicine, and Power in France’s Long 19th Century”; and six guest student presenters from across the country.
We greatly appreciate the generous support of the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, the Departments of Music Theory and Musicology, and the IU Student Association which sponsored the Symposium this past February.
The symposium presentation roster and information are available on the symposium website.
