Dear AMS members,
The NorCal Chapter invites you to attend its annual meeting on Saturday, April 20 with additional social activities taking place on Sunday, April 21, 2024 at the University of Nevada, Reno (part of the NorCal chapter). All events will be hosted in-person but will be also be accessible remotely.
Abstract submissions are due on March 10, 2024. Please send your proposals to the NorCal chapter president, Pierpaolo Polzonetti (ppolzonetti -at- ucdavis.edu). The proposal should include a title and a 250-word abstract. Papers proposals submitted for the AMS national meeting can be also submitted without changes for this chapter meeting. We will consider paper in all branches and genres of musicology, ethnomusicology, and theory.
At this conference we will confer the Northern California Prize in Musicology for the best graduate student paper. All graduate students presenting are eligible, as long as they bring four physical copies of their paper for the committee members by the day of the conference registration (Saturday, April 20), before sessions start.
You will find the complete conference program, travel and lodging information, and instructions for joining virtually at the conference webpage: https://norcal.ams-net.org/
Conference registration itself is free, but we ask that presenters and in-person attendees join the chapter or renew their memberships via the general AMS membership
We look forward to seeing you in Reno!
Sincerely,
