We invite submissions for presentations at the 4th Annual Symposium on Enharmonic Interfaces and Controllers for Keyboard Instruments, with a special focus this year on Extending the Organ’s Potential. The symposium aims to highlight new artistic and research-driven approaches to organ performance, instrument design, and musical expression.
We welcome abstracts of up to 300 words for 20-minute presentations in a variety of formats, including:
- Traditional research papers
- Lecture-demonstrations
- Creative or artistic presentations
- Concert-demonstrations
Submissions should address – but are not limited to – one or more of the following themes:
Topics of Interest:
- Hyper-organs and networked organ systems
- Alternative tuning systems and dynamic temperaments
- Extended or reconfigurable organ layouts
- New performance techniques for contemporary organ works
- Augmented interfaces for historical and modern organs
- Organ-building innovations enabling microtonality and enharmonicity
We particularly encourage interdisciplinary approaches that connect instrument building, composition, performance, acoustics, music theory, history and technology.
