Please join us online or in person for the upcoming conference Materialising Music: Perspectives in Music and Material Culture.
The conference will be held on Thursday, 8 and Friday, 9 December 2022 at the Royal College of Music, London. This conference is part of a series of events organised to launch the new Wolfson Centre in Music and Material Culture. It is also the second event organised in relation to the research project Materialising Musical Instruments supported by the British Academy and Leverhulme Trust, which aims to situate early modern instruments within the larger framework of economic interconnections and cultural history of commodities that aided in shaping early modern soundscapes. (For more details on the project, please see the website).
The conference aims to generate a discussion about the current role that music and musical instruments play in the field of material culture studies, across academia and museums.
