Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of our Central New York Humanities Corridor working group, I am writing to invite you to participate in a Women in Music Analysis-a-Thon in March. This event will take place online.
Our group is collaborating with Felipe Martins (UFRJ), Anne Foo, and Mark Gotham, who are developing a timeline tool called TiLiA. TiLiA allows the analyst to enter data about form, harmony, motive, and so on, in such a way that it links directly to specific time points in an audio file, YouTube recording, and/or musical score. This video provides a quick overview of how it works and what it does.
We think this free and open-source software could be highly useful for research and teaching; we invite the music theory community to try it out and provide feedback so that we can maximize utility to the theory community. And we will get to compare our analyses of works by women composers as the end result.
This event is in two parts. You are welcome to participate in one or both parts of the event, depending on your availability and interest.
Part 1: Analysis with TiLiA (mostly asynchronous, throughout the month of March)
Part 2: Discussion (on Zoom)
If you are interested in participating, please complete this registration form on or before Monday, February 17. If you have additional questions about these activities, please email me at smarlowe [at] esm.rochester.edu.
Thank you for your consideration!
Sarah Marlowe
