Satellite events

Satellite events will be organised by the partner institutions prior to the main conference. These events—workshops, discussion groups, seminars—aim to lay the groundwork for the epistemological discussion of the conference through specific case studies that shed light on different aspects of the main problem. These events will rely on the partner institutions to incite the epistemological reflection. They will draw on different conceptual, theoretical, methodological or computer tools with the intention of applying them to corpora of varied geographical and historical origin. The list of satellite events will be progressively completed and updated by the partner institutions.

Didactics and Pedagogy of Musical Analysis. Different Perspectives.

  • Event type: conference
  • Organiser: IEMTP/IREMUS & TEMA
  • Date: 2 hours’ sessions from February 8 to 11, 2023. 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. C.E.T

This series of conferences explores music analysis from the perspective of students and teachers and how their interests determine the repertoires and methods of study. The main goal of this series of conferences is to explore different perspectives of music analysis applied to a variety of repertoire according to students’ and teachers’ standpoints, primarily determined by their domains of interest and experience. With the conservatory structure being adopted by most universities in North and South America, a solid foundation was set for the establishment of a dialogue between theory and performance, as outlined by the project International Exchanges on Music Theory and Performance (IEMTP/IReMus), working in partnership with the Brazilian Society of Musical Analysis (TEMA) for the occasion of this conference.

Seminar of the French Society of Ethnomusicology (SFE)

  • Event type: seminar
  • Organiser: French Society of Ethnomusicology (SFE)
  • Date: March 24, 2023, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. (Paris time)
  • Venue: physical and virtual meeting, Centre Universitaire de Clignancourt (Sorbonne Université)
  • Contact:  francois.picard[at]sorbonne-universite.fr, corinne.savy[@]wanadoo.fr

The study of non-western music is certainly not the unique goal, purpose, object, or tradition of ethnomusicology. We can just cite the study of people making music, here and now, the study of “popular” or “folk” music, the study of “oral” music, and many other subjects. But the study of East Asian music will offer several specific insights and present a special challenge to analysis, among other reasons, due to the existence of autochthonous written notations, and, as every traditional, living music does, through the existence of recordings. The use of adapted or invented digital tools (from iAnalyse to MeiDunhuang) will be demonstrated, including the automatisation of the century-old Abraham-Hornbostel 1909 Leiterntabellen (later known as the “diagram of melodic analysis”).

The Musical Grammar of Traditional Modal Monodies

  • Event type: workshop
  • Organiser: Centre for Research on Musical Traditions at the Antonine University (Lebanon)
  • Date: March 27, 2023, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. CET
  • Venue: Virtual meeting
  • Contact: nidaa.aboumrad[at]ua.edu.lb

Modal semiotics theory proposes a method for the [musical] grammatical modeling of traditional monodies within the cultural space ranging from southern Asia to medieval Europe (and present-day Greece), passing through central Asia, Western Asia and Northern Africa. This description is based on a matrix transformational rhythmic-melodic morphophonological rewriting of the surface of the segments of the monody and on a vectorial transformational syntactic rewriting allowing to describe the derivational and integrative elaboration of the same monody. The semiotic component of this grammar is based on its phonological, morphological, and syntactic components, notably on the semantic vector modalities inherent in modal syntax, and gives rise to a neurocognitive approach to the structures that modal semiotic analysis highlights. In this workshop, the Center for Research on Musical Traditions, attached to the Faculty of Music and Musicology of the Antonine University, provides an overview of this method, followed by the presentation of some analyses of monodies from different traditions and the results of research in cognitive neuroscience articulated with modal semiotics.

Computer Assisted Analysis

  • Event type: workshop
  • Organiser: Higher Institute of Music (University of Sousse)
  • Date: March 28, 2023, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. (Sousse time) / 5: p.m. to 8 p.m. (Paris Time)
  • Venue: Virtual meeting
  • Contact:  anas.ghrab[at]isms.tn

In the digital context, musicological information is transformed into digital data, whether it be sound, textual, or symbolic. The objective of this workshop is to explore this type of data for analytical purposes by seeking to determine the limits between digital musicology, descriptive statistics, and data science. We will particularly focus on the need for an algorithmic formalisation of notions used in analytical musicology.

IMS "Analysis and musicology" Study Group

  • Event type: workshop
  • Organiser: International Musicological Society
  • Date: [TBA]
  • Venue: virtual meeting
  • Contact:  christophe.guillotel-nothmann[@]cnrs.fr

The conference will feature an IMS study group intitled "Analysis and musicology". The formulation of the group' s objectives, the definition of its field of study and the identification of its links with other study groups and networks will be the subject of a dedicated satellite event. The programme thus outlined will be submitted to the IMS Directorium for approval in order that the group can be constituted at the time of the main conference. Requests to participate should be addressed to the organiser of the satellite event.
