Call For Proposals: 2024 Annual Meeting of the AMS - NYSSL Chapter
Host Institution: State University of New York, Potsdam, New York, USA
Chair: Professor Erin Brooks
Date: April 12-13, 2024
Deadline for proposals: Thursday, February 1, 2024
We are pleased to announce that the 2024 Annual Meeting of the New York State St. Lawrence Chapter of the American Musicological Society will take place on Friday and Saturday 12-13 April, at Potsdam (USA), hosted by the State University of New York Potsdam and chaired by Professor Erin Brooks.
We welcome proposals for 20-minute presentations on all areas of scholarship in music, in addition to proposals for panels or alternate format sessions. We also encourage proposals for a session of lightning talks consisting of five-minute research presentations on any topic (including work-in-progress).
Please use this submission form to submit proposals for all types of presentations. For 20-minute presentations and alternate format sessions, please share an abstract of no more than 250 words. For 5-minute lightning talks, please simply share the topic and a 2-3 sentence description. For proposals of full panels, please include a brief description of the panel, and then individual 250-word abstracts for all papers. The form will also ask you to indicate your name, affiliation, and contact information, as well as any unique tech and/or accessibility requirements. Graduate students who wish to be considered for the AMS-NYSSL Student Paper Prize should check the appropriate box on the form. The submission of an abstract presupposes that the proposer agrees to present the talk should the program committee accept it. Submissions will be accepted until February 1, 2024. For questions about submissions, please contact Professor Brooks, SUNY Potsdam, at brooksem [at] potsdam [dot] edu.
As usual, you do not need to be a member of the AMS or the NYSSL chapter to submit a proposal. Should your paper be selected for presentation, you will need to pay the meeting fee ($20 for full-time faculty, $10 for all other participants) as part of the registration process.
This year, the Annual Meeting will feature a keynote address, a graduate student workshop, an evening concert, and other opportunities to connect with colleagues in the Chapter.
More information will be shared via the AMS-NYSSL website, as well as our Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter accounts.
We look forward to seeing you in Potsdam!

On behalf of the American Musicological Society
