#CfP: Quo vadis, impegno? Trends and ideas in socially and politically engaged music from the 1960s to the present day. Symposium in honor of Luca Lombardi's 80th birthday. Deadline: 13 January 2025. More information: t1p.de/vsj5c #historyofmusic @[email protected] @[email protected]
Music was ubiquitous throughout #Mesopotamian history, playing important roles in both religious and secular contexts. Mesopotamia is of particular interest to scholars because evidence from the region—which includes #artifacts, #artisticDepictions, and #writtenRecords—places it among the earliest well-documented cultures in the #historyOfMusic. The discovery of a bone #wind #instrument dating to the 5th millennium BCE provides the earliest evidence of music culture in Mesopotamia.
#Sociology and Social History of Music. Discuss current master's theses or postdoctoral projects. With a keynote by Lello Savonardo. 13–15 October 2025. Programme: t1p.de/08o6l Registration (online or in-person attendance): event.dhi-roma.it/participant/... #SocialHistory #HistoryOfMusic

Visited the Musée des Instruments de Musique in #Brussels. Badly lit, strangely curated, confusingly and sparingly signed, telegraphic explanatory labels generally placed in the shadows and beyond easy reading range - but a huge lot of fascinating, beautiful, surprising, rare, and unusual musical instruments. If you're in Brussels, don't miss this. #music #MIM #Bruxelles #Belgique #Belgium #museums #musicalinstruments #history #historyofmusic

I just signed this petition. Not quite a big fan of jazz - not quite an active listener, although I do like the sound of it (I mean, what's not to like about jazz, really). There is a piece of history that's threatened to be lost, however, and if that happens, it would be a sad moment for world culture. The #78rpmrecords are a part of the immaterial heritage of the world, and as discs wear out, saving them digitally is of utmost importance. Hope they succeed.

ТОП6 культових рок-гуртів Львова "нульових"

Львівська рок-сцена завжди відрізнялася неабияким шармом та креативом. Пропонуємо трохи зануритися в історію українського року, який безумовно є явищем української культури, згадати старі добрі часи й насолодитися творчістю обдарованих рок-музикантів Львова епохи 2000-х, або як її ще називають "нульових".
