Best wishes to you all,

AMS Louisville 2015
Call for Performances
Deadline: 15 January 2015
The AMS Performance Committee invites proposals for concerts, lecture-recitals,
and other performances and performance-related events during the 2015
Louisville Annual Meeting. We encourage proposals that demonstrate the
Society’s diversity of interests, range of approaches, and geographic and
chronological breadth inspired by or complementing new musicological finds that
develop a point of view or offer a programmatic focus. Performances related to
the meeting’s venue are especially welcome.
Freelance artists as well as performers and ensembles affiliated with colleges,
universities, or conservatories are encouraged to submit proposals. Available
presentation times include lunch hours, afternoons, and Thursday evening, 12
November 2015.
Required application materials include: 1) an application cover sheet
(available from the AMS office or via this link); 2) a proposed program listing
repertory, performer(s), and the duration of each work; 3) a list of
audio-visual and performance needs; 4) a short (100-word) biography of each
participant named in the proposal; 5) for concerts, a one-page explanation of
the significance of the program or manner of performance; for lecture-recitals,
a description (two pages maximum) explaining the significance of the program or
manner of performance, and a summary of the lecture component, including
information pertaining to the underlying research, its methodology, and
conclusions; 6) representative audio or visual materials pertaining to the
program and performers (twenty minutes maximum). An individual may not present
both a paper and a performance (or lecture-recital) at the meeting. If an
individual’s proposals to the Program and Performance Committee are both
selected!
, the applicant will be given an early opportunity to decide which invitation
to accept and which to decline. Though the AMS is unable to offer a fee to
artists, modest subsidies are occasionally available for performance-related
expenses. Please see the application cover sheet for proposal submission
details. Materials must arrive at the AMS office no later than 5 p.m. EST, 15
January 2015. Exceptions cannot be made to this deadline, so please plan
accordingly. Receipts will be sent to those who have submitted proposals by the
deadline, and the committee will communicate its decisions by 15 April, 2015.
