Music and the moving Image VII
Conference at NYU Steinhardt, June
1-3, 2012
The annual conference, Music and the
Moving Image, encourages submissions from scholars and practitioners that
explore the relationship between music, sound, and the entire universe of moving
images (film, television, video games, iPod, computer, and interactive
performances) through paper presentations.
This year’s conference will include
practitioner roundtables on "Songs in Film," featuring leading music supervisors
and chaired by Grammy-nominated NYU Songwriter-in-Residence, Phil Galdston (Save
the Best for Last). We also encourage abstract submissions on "Songs in Film"
for panels. We will present our second year of panels dedicated to papers on
Film Music Pedagogy chaired by Philip Tagg and Ron Sadoff, and we invite those
who teach within film, media, and/or music curricula to submit abstracts about
applying particular theoretical approaches to the practice of teaching
soundtracks. Streaming video of the presentations will be available only at NYU
from June 1-11, 2012.

Roberto.Calabretto (Lo schermo sonoro. La musica per film); Jeongwon Joe (Wagner
and Cinema; Between Opera and Cinema); Philip Tagg (Kojak: 50 Seconds of
Television Music; Ten Little Title Tunes); Emile Wennekes (Chair of the Music
