THEORIZING THE SPACE BETWEEN 
Interdisciplinary Graduate Conference on Music
University of Alberta Graduate Music Students Association 

MARCH 6-8, 2009
 
Despite the plethora of 'interdisciplinary' workshops, conferences and journals, there still exists a great potential for fresh music scholarship. Exciting scholarship is taking place in new shared spaces where once conceptual fences stood separating fields of study. As the space between disciplines ­ hovering just beyond the boundaries of one approach and another ­ becomes a viable starting point for analysis, the complexity of musical study is compounded by social, cultural and scientific perspectives.
 
As graduate students, we sometimes lack a forum for experimenting in this new complexity, hashing out the new 'in-between' of ideas as they branch across two, or more, fields. With this focus we invite all graduate students from a variety of disciplines to participate in Theorizing the Space Between in order to engage in a unique and thought-provoking discourse on music.
