Keynotes

Uchenna Ngwe (Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance & Royal Academy of Music, UK)

In the course of the 60th anniversary of the Dept. of Music Sociology in 2025, we propose this conference “The Archival Turn in Music Sociology” in order to acknowledge the contributions of female, feminist, queer and post-/decolonial scholars, musicians, activists, and archivists to the history of music sociology and to critically engage with the historiographies of music’s past. (…)

Sometimes popular culture can critique dominant ideology, contra Adorno. And the instrumentalisation of music as a force for social and economic good has become so rife within my field of music psychology (despite some great counter-examples) partly because it helps fund what would otherwise be seen as frivolous research. I take a balanced view but everyone working on music and wellbeing should watch It Ain’t Over Until The Fat Neighbour Sings https://kingofthehill.fandom.com/wiki/It_Ain%27t_Over_Till_The_Fat_Neighbor_Sings #MusicAndWellbeing #Music #MusicPsychology #MusicSociology #SeriousLeisure #Choir #KingOfTheHill
