The 53rd annual Musicological Conference of the Polish Composers’ Union (ZKP) will be held at the Feliks Nowowiejski Academy of Music in Bydgoszcz on October 3–5, 2024. This year’s Conference is devoted to “Non-absolute Music.” 

The Conference format will include Individual presentations in the form of papers of up to 20 minutes, broader panels with the participation of at least 3 speakers of up to 60 minutes and short messages of up to 10 minutes. The deadline for submitting applications is April 10, 2024.

Organizers are calling for papers reflecting on music that:

  • …is created as a result of inspiration from various sources, permeated by “fluids coming from many dimensions”
  • …causes resonance or “generates vibrations” among artists representing various art disciplines
  • …requires the involvement of other media and modern technologies for full resonance
  • …puts question marks on the presence and absence of senses and meanings
