Cambridge University Press Award

The Society is pleased to announce the establishment of the

CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS AWARD

International scholars who have had papers or posters accepted for the annual meeting may compete for this conference paper award. "International Scholars" are defined as presenters who are non-U.S. citizens and hold an institutional affiliation and/or principal residence outside the United States. A presenter wishing to be considered for the award must submit his or her paper (or, for a poster, the equivalent of a 20-minute paper) and accompanying audio-visual material to the award committee chair by a deadline set by the chair. The award will consist of a substantial amount of books, chosen by the winner, from the Cambridge University Press catalog. The award winner will be announced at the Society's annual meeting. All applicants must be members of the Society for American Music. This paper award is designed for non-students. (International students may submit materials for the Mark Tucker Award.) For consideration at the Denver meeting, one electronic copy,  and accompanying audio-visual material, should be sent by February 1, 2009 to:
