GAMMA-UT, the Graduate Association of Music and Musicians at UT, announces its ninth annual conference, "Music and Memory," to be held Saturday, March 7, 2009 at The University of Texas at Austin. Graduate students from the areas of music theory, composition, musicology, and ethnomusicology will meet to share their research. Composers will present their works at a concert on Saturday night in the Music Recital Studio (MRH 2.608).

 

This year’s keynote speaker is Aaron Fox. Dr. Fox is an associate professor of ethnomusicology at Columbia University, where he is also chair of the Department of Music. His publications include the 2004 book Real Country: Music and Language in Working-Class Culture (Duke University Press) as well as articles on country music, music/language relationships, and working-class culture.
