I will spend much of
November of this year in North America for various music lectures and
presentations. First, I will chair a session on “Teaching and Learning” at the Society for Ethnomusicology conference in New Orleans, and also attend
the Historical Ethnomusicology meeting to discuss a book I am co-editing
with Jonathan McCollum entitled Theory and Method in Historical
Ethnomusicology (forthcoming, 2013, Rowman & Littlefield).
Later, I will give
lectures based on my two books from 2012 (Wind Bands and Cultural Identity
in Japanese Schools and Patriotism and Nationalism in Music Education) at the following universities:
-University of
Louisiana, Lafayette, LA, United States [Click HERE for a poster]

*** Meetings also scheduled with scholars at University of Tokyo, Yamanashi University, and Beijing’s Central Conservatory of Music, as well as commissioning editors with NTT publishing. ***
I always look forward to such opportunities to meet many other music researchers and share ideas.
For spring of 2013,
funding has been arranged for week-long residencies to teach master classes for
universities in Sweden and Latvia, and plans are also at the beginning stages
for a keynote lecture in Africa (Tanzania) at a conference during the summertime.
