The Historic Brass Society will be hosting an in-person Symposium July 10-14, 2024 in New York City, on "Innovations in Brass: Design, Manufacturing, Performance, Repertoire, Teaching." We are currently accepting proposals for presentations of up to 20 minutes, including papers, lecture-recitals, musical performances, and instrument demonstrations relating to these broad topics:
- brass instrument design and development
- manufacturing and publishing
- repertoire, composers, and performers
- historical performance practices
- pedagogy and pedagogues
Proposals should include an abstract of 250 words, a 75-word biography, and email contact information. Performance proposals should include any specific instrument requirements (piano/organ/harpsichord, etc.). Shorter presentations are also welcome; please provide expected timing.
All proposals should be submitted by email to scoffin@historicbrass.org no later than November 15, 2023.
