The research concerning player pianos and reproducing pianos has grown recently. However, it is still underrepresented, given its cultural relevance. Furthermore, most works focus on Anglo-American contexts. This volume strives to make the research carried out in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America visible; there, research groups, independent researchers, and collectors have been working for a long time on these issues. We welcome contributions of scholars and collectors from within and outside academia to enrich our perspective on player pianos and reproducing pianos in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America.

The US chapter of the International Association for the Study of Popular Music (IASPM) announces our annual conference, April 11-14, 2024, hosted by Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA.

Becker illustrated in his foundational work on “art worlds,” popular music is the product of a group of creators: songwriters and lyricists, studio musicians, sound engineers, promoters, dancers, and more.

The gender gap in the music industry (understood in its broadest sense) has been evident, perceptible, measurable, and publicly discussed for many years. However, public discussions and policy initiatives on ‘gender inequality’ and ‘gender balance’ often focus on increasing the number of women and gender non-conforming professionals, leaving the patriarchal infrastructures and cultures of the music industries unchanged and unchallenged.

The Winter Workshop is a practical and collaborative research development event. The goal is to bring together researchers aiming to generate innovative research on music and online cultures. The event will feature structured periods of collaborative work supplemented by instructional ‘how-to’ sessions, plus opportunities for networking.
Attendees will be mostly postgraduate, postdoctoral, and early career researchers. Groups of 4 or 5 researchers will work on each project. Note that the event is not for completing existing research (e.g. individual doctoral theses) but instead facilitates the development of new collaborative projects. MOCReN will provide support to help projects develop towards publication.
