The Royal Academy of Music warmly invites submissions for this two-day international conference, exploring the role of women in shaping historical narratives of music across the long nineteenth century.

Recognising the diversity, complexity and nuance of female engagement with musical historiographies, we invite proposals that consider the agency women exercised as performers, composers, scholars, teachers and recorders of musical practice. Special consideration will be given to submissions that foreground performance as a means of documenting, interpreting and communicating musical/historical narratives.

Further information, and the submission portal, can be found on the conference website: Women and Musical Histories, 1789–1914 | Royal Academy of Music
