Bringing together musicians, music historians, and ethnomusicologists from the United States and Canada and using the Blisses and Dumbarton Oaks as its inspiration, this symposium examines Washington, D.C.’s history as a globally unique political-musical center. An evening concert by a D.C.-based music ensemble is planned for the first night. The convenors will propose the release of an edited volume following the symposium.
