[SMT-PAIG] PAIG CFP Deadline on Monday, June 3

[Nathan C Pell]

Dear PAIG members,

We hope your summer is off to a wonderful start!

As we wrote last month to SMT Announce, this year for the first time PAIG will hold two sessions:  our usual in-person meeting at the annual SMT conference in Jacksonville, plus a new virtual session in late June.  We will use this virtual session for lightning talks, thus freeing up time at SMT for activities best suited to an in-person format.  We'd like to remind you that the submissions deadline for the June session is coming up soon (CFP below) and we hope you will send in a proposal!

All best,
Nathan Pell and Daniel Ketter, SMT PAIG co-chairs



The SMT Performance and Analysis Interest Group (PAIG) invites proposals for 13-minute lightning talks at its inaugural virtual spring meeting, to be held over Zoom on Wednesday, June 26, 2024 from 8:00 to 9:30 pm Eastern.

Proposals may address any aspect of the relation between music performance and music theory/analysis.  Authors should make performance-analysis connections explicit:  the program committee will reject proposals unclear in this regard.  Proposals should also reflect a presentation's feasibility for the lightning format and its incorporation of recorded or live music.  We welcome creative delivery approaches (lecture recitals, teaching demonstrations, audience participation, etc.) and collaborations between scholars and performers.  And we especially encourage submitters to focus on non-white, non-male musicians and to confront or decenter harmful theoretical framings.  Authors may submit only one proposal for consideration, and proposals will be reviewed anonymously.

To submit a proposal, please do the following by Monday, June 3, 2024:

--Prepare a PDF file that includes (1) a title, (2) a proposal of up to 500 words, and (3) up to 2 pages of examples and/or bibliography.  The entire document (including filename and metadata) should be anonymized, with self-references in the third person.

--Email that file to smtpaig (at) gmail.com using the subject line "Spring 2024 PAIG Proposal."  In the body of the email, please identify the author(s) of the proposal.

In submitting a proposal, you agree to the following if your proposal is accepted:

--To provide PAIG with a short (500-750 word) "teaser" blog post by Wednesday, June 19, to be written in a reasonably non-technical and accessible style.  This could simply adapt your proposal or could be a newly composed text.  PAIG blog staff will assist those unfamiliar with the medium.  We will use this blog post to promote our meeting and to give PAIG members the opportunity to engage with your ideas or listen to recordings in advance of the session.

PAIG Spring 2024 Program Committee:

David Keep (Hope College)
Daniel Ketter (Missouri State University, ex officio)
