A digital symposium titled Towards 2040: Creating Classical Music Futures, will take place on 21-22 April 2021, organised by Maastricht Centre for the Innovation of Classical Music. It will be held online with some live events planned for the host city of Maastricht if restrictions allow.
The symposium aims to stimulate a supportive and fruitful dialogue in order to better understand what ingredients lead to successful innovation in classical music. The process of 'futuring' itself will be critically considered, while different ways that practitioners are constructing future will be also dealt with. It will also be the start of a process that will result in a book on Classical Music Futures, to which symposium presenters and attendees are invited to contribute.
The Maastricht Centre for the Innovation of Classical Music invites proposals for single presentations, panels, roundtables and online workshops. Abstracts (max. 250 words), the name of presenter(s)/author(s), a short biography and organisational or institutional affiliation should be submitted to mcicm-fasos@maastrichtuniversity.nl by 1 February 2021 17:00 CET.
Detailed information can be found in the attached file and on the dedicated webpage.
