Keynote speakers

The keynote lectures of the XVI Nordic Musicological Congress represent a selection of fields of strategic importance in contemporary research in music. Each keynote lecture will be followed-up by a panel discussion.

Professor Pirkko Moisala, Professor Pirkko Moisala, Department of Philosophy, History, Culture and Art Studies, University of Helsinki, will discuss the ways that music research matters. Under the title (How) Does Music Research Matter?, the talk expands upon the rapidly growing field of applied ethnomusicology, which aims at the active engagement of the researcher in social and cultural processes, through discussing music research in general as a political act that should be ethically informed.

Moisala’s research work has spanned the fields of ethnomusicology, musicology and gender studies. Her book publications in English include Kaija Saariaho (University of Illinois Press, 2009), Cultural Cognition in Music, Continuity and Change in the Gurung Music of Nepal (Gummerus, 1991), co-authored Gender and Qualitative Methods (Sage Publications, 2003) and co-edited Music and Gender (University of Illinois Press, 2000).

Niels Krabbe, Research Professor and leader of the Danish Centre for Music Publication, The Royal Library, Denmark, lectures about contemporary conditions for scholarly editions of music, and issues concerning the roles and functions these editions might have today. Krabbe has been a leader of the Music Department (now Music- and Theatre department) at the Royal Library 1996-2009, and main editor or leader for several scholarly edition projects, e.g. the Carl Nielsen edition 1997-2009.

Under the title ”Noisy: Toward a Political Economy of Music and New Media,” Professor Paul Théberge, Carleton University, Canada, will lecture on technological mediation of music, and some of its current implications for research. Théberge is holder of a Canada Research Chair in Technological Mediations of Culture, and is involved in projects regarding music in global culture, as well as the impact of digital techniques on the music industry. Théberge is the author of Any Sound You can Imagine: Making Music, Consuming Technology, Wesleyan University Press 1997.

Sverker Jullander, Anna Hwass Professor of Musical Performance at the Department of Art, Communication and Education, Luleå University of Technology, Sweden. will give a lecture entitled Ars Antiqua to Scientia Nova? Historical and contemporary perspectives on artistic research in music. The lecture will deal with artistic research in music, both as part of the general development of research in the arts and as an emerging phenomenon in musical and academic life, providing historical backgrounds and discussing current developments. Until March 2012 he was also Director of Research Education at the Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts, University of Gothenburg. He graduated as a church musician from the Royal College of Music, Stockholm, and received his diploma as an organ soloist at the School of Music, University of Gothenburg.
