The year 2025 marks the third installment of the Analytical Approaches to World Musics Special Topics Symposium series, dedicated to the intersections of indigenous and contemporary music theories, music analysis, and diverse musical traditions of Asia. The symposium will be held October 11-14, 2025, at Cornell University, and it is sponsored by the Analytical Approaches to World Musics<\/em> Journal (AAWM), the International Foundation for the Theory and Analysis of World Musics (IFTAWM), the Cornell University Department of Music, and the Cornell University East Asia and Southeast Asia Programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This symposium aims to bring together scholars, performers, composers, and practitioners to explore interdisciplinary and cross-cultural scholarship in all Asian music traditions, past and present, and to engage with theoretical paradigms, cultural frameworks, and analytical methodologies pertinent to the music of Asian communities. In order to foster interdisciplinary and cross-cultural dialogue, promote new research methods and collaborative research, the program will include numerous special panel sessions, paper sessions, roundtable discussions, workshops, and music performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event will be held in a hybrid format. While attendees are warmly encouraged to attend and participate onsite, options for remote participation involving either recorded or live virtual presentations via ZOOM are also available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
