*Keynote speaker: *Professor Raymond MacDonald (University of Edinburgh)

The University of South Wales and the Creative Industries Research
Institute will host a symposium on 5th of March on music, pedagogy and
community. The symposium will explore ideas of how musical participatory
practices can build a sense of community, and how pedagogical practices,
formal but also and possibly more importantly informal, are a part of
the process of social continuity in certain societies, cultures or
sub-cultures.

We want to bring scholars and artists together to explore and
investigate the notions of communities built (wholly or in part) around
music. The symposium will be a one day event which takes place on 5th of
March 2016. Registration will open during the autumn of 2015.

We invite proposals for 20-minute papers, screenings and live events
followed by discussion. Please submit an abstract of no more than 300
words and a short biography of no more than 50 words to both Emily
Underwood-Lee: (emily.underwood-lee /at/ southwales.ac.uk)
<mailto:(emily.underwood-lee /at/ southwales.ac.uk)> and Christina
Papagiannouli: (christina.papagiannouli /at/ southwales.ac.uk)
<mailto:(christina.papagiannouli /at/ southwales.ac.uk)>. Please also include
your email address, institution (if applicable) and any access and
presentation requirements. We very much welcome the participation of PhD
students and early-career colleagues.

Topics may include, but will not be limited to, the following:

• Transformative practices, musical provocations, changing lives.
• Possible musical cultures: utopias, fictions, temporalities.
• Race and gender: identity, difference and the creation of musical
communities.
• Performing history: musical communities as the guardians of styles,
performance practices and traditions.
• Process and emergence: rehearsal methods, oral traditions, adaptation
and change.
• Dualities within performance (i.e. private/ public, local/ global).
• Pedagogy and learning: training, growth, ignorance.

*The deadline for the submission of proposals is 1st of December 2015.*

*Convener:* Dr Robert Smith (University of South Wales)
