AHRC Research Centre for Musical Performance as Creative Practice (CMPCP)


The CMPCP team is currently preparing a PSN Resource Guide which will be of particular interest to members of the Performance Studies Network that we are also developing. The aim of the Guide is to facilitate contact and collaboration between musicians and scholars engaged in performance studies activity around the world, to enhance awareness of the work being done in the field, and to provide links and other information of potential use in individual research initiatives.

A draft version of the Guide now appears on the CMPCP website at http://www.cmpcp.ac.uk/psn_resource.html, and we invite you to have a close look at it and, importantly, to contribute to it. As you will see, the Guide has been divided into four main categories:

-- Research centres and other major projects
-- Other organisations
-- Journals
-- Additional resources.

Although a good deal of material is already available, the Guide is by no means complete, and anyone who wishes to contribute an entry within one or more of these categories is asked to send details to the following email
address:

psn@cmpcp.ac.uk

Please put 'PSN Resource Guide' in the subject of your email, followed by the relevant category/ies (e.g. Research centres and other major projects, Other organisations, etc.).

New entries will be edited by the CMPCP team, prior to uploading from mid-May onwards. No single entry should exceed 100 words; longer entries cannot be included. Please use the following format for any entries that you would like to add:

-- Name of Centre/Project/Journal/Organisation/etc.
-- URL of home page
-- Descriptive text.

The text should not be an 'advertisement' but instead should provide in a concise form the most essential information about the given centre, project, journal etc.

If you discover any errors or misrepresentations in the draft version, please send details to psn@cmpcp.ac.uk. Any omissions from the current list are unintended and not a matter of CMPCP policy!

Thank you in advance for your contributions. We hope to add new categories in due course and will consult the Performance Studies Network again then.
