The University of Oregon is happy to present the fifth annual Musicking conference: “Musicking: Culturally Informed Performance Practices” to be held in the UO, School of Music and Dance in Eugene, OR (location: Collier House, at University and 13th Streets), from May 19 through May 22, 2020. The purpose of the conference is to bring together research, education, and performance of historical music in the broadest sense by considering performance practices and performance practice studies through a cultural lens. In its fifth year, the conference will feature educational workshops, lecture performances, academic panels and evening concerts. Round-table discussions will focus on the state of early music in 2020. Special events at this year’s conference include a culturally informed performance of Giovanni Bononcini’s oratorio, “San Nicola di Bari” (Rome, 1693) and “Élevé: A Symposium of Music & Dance in Honor of Marian Smith,” featuring workshops and a keynote address by ballet historian and specialist in Stepanov notation, Doug Fullington (Pacific Northwest Ballet).
