Next month, six scholars from Boston University will descend on Rome to present at the International Musicological Society Congress, which runs July 1-7, 2012. The complete conference program is available online; I myself will be speaking on Tuesday, July 2, giving the paper “Identity in Mauritius: the Role of Government Policy and Tourism in ‘National Culture’.”
Party in Rome!
