Call for Papers:  2009­-A Year of Anniversary Celebrations  

The International Review of the Aesthetics and Sociology of Music (IRASM) is issuing a special CFP for the year 2009.  In light of the fact that 2009 marks the 350th anniversary of the birth of Purcell, the 250th of the death of Handel, the 200th of the death of Haydn, and the 200th of the birth of Mendelssohn, the journal is particularly eager to publish articles focusing on the music (or activities) of any of these composers. All musicological perspectives are welcomed; though in keeping with the journal’s central mandate, we are particularly interested in essays focusing on the social, aesthetic, and broader philosophic significance of Purcell, Handel, Haydn, and Mendelssohn­for their own time and for our own.  

IRASM is the official journal of the Croatian Musicological Society and is published twice yearly (in June and December). For further information, contact its editor, Dr. Stanislav Tuksar at tuksar at hazu.hr, or at the address (or phone numbers) below:
