Historical Notation Bootcamp, July 29–August 2, 2024, Yale University (New
Haven, NY)

Andrew Hicks (Cornell University) and Anna Zayaruznaya (Yale University)
are delighted to announce the return of the Historical Notation Bootcamp
<https://blogs.cornell.edu/hnb/> (https://blogs.cornell.edu/hnb/) after an
extended pandemic hiatus. This year’s bootcamp will take place on July
29–August 2, 2024, at Yale University’s Department of Music and Beinecke
Library. We are now accepting online applications
<https://forms.gle/k4n1fwH49BMiNi1GA> (https://forms.gle/k4n1fwH49BMiNi1GA).

This year’s bootcamp will take place at Yale University’s Department of
Music and Beinecke Library. The four-and-a-half-day seminar offers a
practical and theoretical overview of medieval musical notations, from
neumes to early print sources. Participants will acquire the basic skills
needed to work with historical musical sources, make sense of source-based
analyses, and sing from original notation.

The event is intended for graduate students in all fields of study, as well
as undergraduates headed into graduate studies. Faculty and postdoctoral
scholars are also welcome to apply. No previous knowledge of historical
notation will be assumed, but experience with modern music notation is
expected. The seminar is free of charge (including materials), and past
participants have often been successful in securing funding from their home
institutions to cover lodging and/or travel.

The application <https://forms.gle/k4n1fwH49BMiNi1GA> requires a statement
of intent (max. 500 words) and a current CV. Applications are accepted
through April 30, and participants will be notified by May 15.
