Conference Description: Music and Manipulation
MUSIC AND MANIPULATION:
On The Social Uses and Social Control of Music
17-19 September 1999
National Palace ("Nalen")
Stockholm, Sweden
ORGANIZERS: Division of Psychosocial Factors and Health, Department of Public Health Sciences, Karolinska Institutet, in cooperation with the Swedish Artists and Musicians Interests Organization (SAMI). The conference is being presented in the context of "The Year of the Brain" in Sweden.
CONTACT PERSON: Steven Brown (Steven.Brown@neuro.ki.se), Ulrik Volgsten (Ulrik.Volgsten@music.su.se)
DESCRIPTION OF THE CONFERENCE:
Music is an ever-present element of human life which is used to influence the emotions in ways appropriate to social situations. Music is an emotional and behavioral manipulator that is actively exploited in all ritual contexts, in the audiovisual media, and throughout the sound environment. But music is the manipulatED as well as the manipulator: music is actively controlled by those in power in order to promote social and commercial aims. In addition, familiar music is re-used extensively in contexts for which it was not intended as a means of creating associations to, for example, commercial products.
These many uses of music raise a large number of important social, psychological, musicological and moral issues that must be addressed in a comprehensive fashion. This program brings together a wide range of topics of relevance to the role of music in society and to music's place in our cultural heritage. The conference is organized around two broad aspects of music and manipulation: Manipulation BY Music (i.e., the uses of music), and Manipulation OF Music (i.e., the control of music). It addresses the following types of questions:
"Music and Manipulation" deals with a host of timely issues related to the role of music in society and history, and should
have a broad appeal to people working in musicology, music psychology, sociology, history, political science, film,
advertising, semiotics, and the music industry itself. As the conference is being sponsored by the Division of Psychosocial
Factors and Health at the Karolinska Institutet and is being presented in the context of the "Year of the Brain" (1999) in
Sweden, it will provide an unprecedented interdisciplinary perspective on music, one that should be of interest to
specialists in many fields.

Exhibition/Conference Announcement: "The Treasury of Alamire"/The Burgundian-Hapsburg Court Complex of Music Manuscripts
EXHIBITION
"The Treasury of Alamire: Music and Miniatures in the Time of the Emperor Charles, 1500-1535"
Leuven, Predikherenkerk, 25 September - 5 December 1999
The "Treasury of Alamire" presents the culmination of polyphonic music in the Low Countries in all its aspects. For the first time, over 40 manuscripts of Petrus Alamire will be brought together. This musician and transcriber of musical scores was a remarkable character. In addition to being a composer and a copyist, he also was a merchant in musicalia, a ministrel, an ambassador, a spy and a counterspy, mostly in the service of the Burgundian-Habsburg court in Mechelen, where Charles V grew up. His music manuscripts were presented to the great of his day: the Emperors Maximilian and Charles, Frederick the Wise of Saxony, Henry VIII of England, and even found their way into the papal chapel of Leo X. With their rich decoration and subtle finish they can be counted among the finest in Europe. This exceptional event (with concerts and workshops in addition to the exhibition) is highly recommended to anyone interested in the sixteenth-century Zeitgeist.
CONFERENCE
The Burgundian-Hapsburg Court Complex of Music Manuscripts (1500-1535) and the Workshop of Petrus Alamire
K.U.Leuven, Faculty of Arts, 25-28 November 1999
In connection with the exhibition "The Treasury of Alamire", the Alamire Foundation (Department of Musicology, K.U.Leuven) is organising an international conference that will focus specifically on the manuscripts from Petrus Alamire's workshop. During this conference scientists from different disciplines will bring together and exchange the results of their exchange the results of their research on this court complex of music manuscripts.
Opening lecture by Prof. Dr. Herbert Kellman. Among the speakers: W. Elders, D. Fallows, B. Haggh, H. Meconi, R. Sherr, M. Staehelin, D. Thoss, F. Warmington a.o.

Call for Papers: Thirteenth Nordic Musicological Congress
The 13th Nordic Musicological Congress was hosted by the Department of Musicology at the University of Aarhus, 15-19 August 2000
The programme was divided into plenary morning sessions and individual afternoon sessions. The four morning sessions were devoted to the following themes:
Wednesday 16 August
WORKING GROUP 1:
Music as Culture - Setting new Agendas
Within today's musical scholarship a number of different research activities deliberately cultivate alternatives to the more
conventional musicological fields of research in an attempt to expand, question or even replace the canonical, theoretical and
methodological norms of predominant agendas. These often interdisciplinary activities include cultural studies, gender
studies, popular music studies, and other forms of studies associated with New Musicology, as well as ethnomusicology and
sociology of music. Common to all is the basic understanding of music as a social and cultural
phenomenon. The aim of the session is to present and debate general as well as specific issues
within this scholarly spectrum.
Thursday 17 August
WORKING GROUP 2:
Music as Text - Revising the Analytical Agenda
Distinguished by constant revision and renewal of its methodological agenda, the field of music analysis has found inspiration in as disparate areas as hermeneutics and, more recently, semiotics in its attempt to deal with the meaning and effect of musical works. This ongoing process of methodological expansion and actual redefinition has to some degree also been dictated by the embrace of new kinds of musical material, e.g. popular music and electro acoustic music, the usually non-graphic nature of which necessitates new approaches to the determination of key parameters, to the discussion of musical meaning and to the basic question of what constitutes a musical work. The aim of the session is to present and debate key issues in relation to today's analytical research activities and their objectives.
Friday 18 August
WORKING GROUP 3:
Music Education and Music Therapy
The expansion of the musicological fields of research also comprises music education (including interpretation) and music therapy. Within the Nordic countries this change has been made obvious by the conversion of conservatoires into research institutions, by various instances of integration of music academies and university music departments, and by the fact that institutions of research and education have been established within music education and music therapy. The aim of the session is to present the current state of these fields of research and to demonstrate their place within musical scholarship at large.
Saturday 19 August
WORKING GROUP 4:
Musicology and Communication
The consequences of the rapid development within information technology, including an increased societal interest in (or rather evaluation of) scholarly research and education, have made the communication and dissemination of research achievements a key issue. How have scholars responded to this challenge so far, and how should they respond in the future? These issues merit illumination and debate from various perspectives, including their relevance to specific research programmes, e.g. the extensive Nordic historical projects, the question of mass media mediation in general, and, perhaps most topical, the scholar's appropriation and utilization of the latest electronic media, e.g. the internet.
The working group of each of these morning sessions will propose a key-note speaker and select a discussion-panel, whose participants will present statements related to the initial key note presentation. Congress participants are of course welcome to join the debate.
The afternoons are reserved for individual presentations, and proposals are invited for free papers, thematic sessions, round table sessions, and poster presentations in all areas of musicology. Thematic groupings of free papers will be arranged by the Programme Committee.

Announcement: New Online Classical Music Resource Site, Duke University Music Library
The Duke University Music Library is proud to present DW3 Classical Music Resources, the most comprehensive collection of classical music resources on the Web with links to more than 1,200 non-commercial pages/sites in more than a dozen languages. The site is comprised of more than 90 well organized, subject-specific pages. It features a powerful, easy-to-use internal search engine; multiple access points for hundreds of entries, including "see" and "see also" references; numerous links, in the form of "canned" subject and author searches, to the Duke online catalog (not meant to encourage ILLs!); and composer-specific pages and links organized by historical period for enhanced browsing. All links will be validated and updated biweekly.
DW3 Classical Music Resources is intended to be an educational/research tool, and as such, it contains few (if any) links to overtly commercial sites. It is intended to be an alternative to the multitude of highly commercial Web resources that offer advertisements in place of information, and to less comprehensive, poorly maintained, non-commercial sites.
We invite you to bookmark or link to our site and utilize it to your heart's delight.
