The committee invites graduate students to submit proposals for 20-minute paper presentations (with a 10-minute question period) or 30-minute lecture-recitals. We encourage the submission of papers on all genres of music and in any area of music research, including, but not limited to, musicology, music theory, ethnomusicology, performance, music education, composition, music technology, and music and health.
