MuSA-Symposium – Music and Sonic Arts (24 – 26. Mai 2013). The principal aim of MuSA 2013 is to advance interdisciplinary investigations in – as well as between – music and sonic art.  Even if widely divergent on the surface, there are various overlaps between the concepts and techniques that underlie ‘traditional’ subject areas such as historical/critical musicology, performance studies, analysis, aesthetics, ethnomusicology and sonic art theories and practices.  Interdisciplinary explorations within and across these domains benefit all those who engage creatively and/or as scholars with the phenomena of sound and music.  Keynote speaker: Philippe Manoury
