Newly published SAGE International Encyclopedia of Music and Culture features the work of University of Arizona faculty, students and alumni, including 17 from the Fred Fox School of Music

 

Copies of the books will be available for public viewing:

Tuesday, April 23, 2019, 3:00-5:00 p.m.

Union Gallery, Student Union Memorial Center

The University of Arizona

 

The University of Arizona Fred Fox School of Music is proud to announce the publication of the “SAGE International Encyclopedia of Music and Culture,” edited by Janet Sturman, professor of music and associate dean of the Graduate College. Among the contributors from more than 65 different countries who wrote entries for this impressive publication, are 24 University of Arizona students, faculty and alumni, of which 17 are from the Fred Fox School of Music (see list below).  Doctoral musicology student Olman Alfaro and alumnus Cecilio Novillo (MM, musicology) are managing editors.

 

The five-volume set presents key concepts in the study of music in its cultural context and offers an introduction to the discipline of ethnomusicology, its methods, concerns, and its contributions to knowledge and understanding of the world’s musical cultures, styles, and practices. The diverse voices of contributors to this encyclopedia confirm ethnomusicology’s fundamental ethos of inclusion and respect for diversity. Combined, the multiplicity of topics and approaches are presented in an easy-to-search A-Z format and offer a fresh perspective on the field and the subject of music in culture.

 

“Collaborating with this outstanding group of scholars to create the publication has been an honor,” said Janet Sturman. “There have been many challenges over the long, yet rewarding process. What a joy to finally see and share the results! I hope readers enjoy this truly international encyclopedia and use it to build new knowledge.”

 

Copies of the books will be available for public viewing on Tuesday, April 23, 2019, during a celebration in honor of Janet Sturman, who is retiring at the end of the academic year. The event, sponsored by the Graduate College, will take place from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. at the Union Gallery, Student Union Memorial Center. (RSVP is requested by calling 520-621-7815.)

JustArts Fellowship for Student Leaders in the Arts

The program was created in collaboration with students serving on the Arizona Arts Diversity and Inclusion Committee, including Seoyeon Kim, Cat Cogliandro, Arianna Aquino, and Lynn Robinson. I am excited that it is now ready to launch with generous funding made possible through philanthropic support.

This unique opportunity invites students to design and complete a change-oriented project that increases student access to meaningful arts experiences. Fellows identify challenges, generate creative solutions, and collaborate with student peers and Arizona Arts mentors to bring a more just vision of the arts to life.

To be eligible for the Fellowship, students must be degree-seeking undergraduate or graduate students in UArizona's College of Fine Arts and enrolled full-time for the 2022-2023 academic year. Fellows will meet once every other week during the fall and spring semesters. They will also receive a $6,000 award with an additional $1,500 in supply/execution budget to bring projects to fruition. You may find more details in the attached flyer.

In my capacity as AVP for Equity in the Arts, I've come to know students across CFA who demonstrate a commitment to equity and inclusion through advocacy, community-building, and other actions big and small. I am sure there are many students in your networks who are ideal candidates for this opportunity. Please share the announcement and flyer widely and encourage individual students to apply. The deadline for applications is May 30, 2022.
