The Music Graduate Student Association at Case Western Reserve University, in coordination with the Center for Popular Music Studies (CPMS), is pleased to announce a conference for graduate students (including recent graduates) to be held on October 5-6, 2018. We seek to bring together scholars, performers, and educators who engage with popular music throughout history and its interaction with: movement of the body, social and political movements, music transmission, gesture, dance, music pedagogy and movement, histories of motion, movements across borders/migration, and movement and medicine. In addition to paper sessions and lecture-recitals, the conference will feature a keynote presentation by Professor Tammy Kernodle (Miami University).
