As many of you are aware, among its activities MEI oversees the organization of an annual conference, the Music Encoding Conference (MEC), to provide a meeting place for scholars interested in discussing the modeling, generation and uses of music encoding. While the conference has an emphasis on the development and uses of MEI, other contributions related to general approaches to music encoding are always welcome, as an opportunity for exchange between scholars from various research communities, including technologists, librarians, historians, and theorists. In order to assist prospective organizers, the MEI Board has published Hosting Guidelinesfor the Music Encoding Conference . Historically, the conference has been organized by institutions involved in MEI, such as MEI member institutions or those hosting MEI-based projects, but proposals from any interested group or institution will be happily received, and ideas other than those expressed in the official document are welcome. While MEC venues have alternated between Europe and North America in the past, there is no such requirement, so applications from anywhere are invited. The deadline for sending proposals is *Sunday, 29 March **2020*.The Board will notify bidders of its decision in late April, and we will jointly inform the MEI community through MEI-L thereafter. Successful bidders should be prepared to make a short presentation at the upcoming MEC in Boston, 26-29 May 2020. The MEI Board is happy to discuss proposals at an early stage already. Please direct all proposals and inquiries to info at music-encoding.org On behalf of the MEI Board, best wishes, Elsa De Luca Researcher in Early Music at CESEM - FCSH, NOVA University of Lisbon Board member and administrative chair of the *Music Encoding Initiative *( MEI ) Board member of *Musicalia Antiquitatis & Medii Aevi*, Brepols (MUSAM ) Coordinator of Monodic Sources for the *Portuguese Early Music Database* (PEM ) https://sites.google.com/fcsh.unl.pt/elsadeluca/ https://cesem.fcsh.unl.pt/en/pessoa/elsa-de-luca/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Therefore, it is really important that nothing is left behind! Moreover, if there are members of this list planning to host/organize any MEI outreach events (lectures, seminars, workshops, etc.) or who are willing to promote MEI in other communities, please feel free to keep in touch with us to discuss your ideas! You can either write to me or at info at music-encoding.org . MEI is a community-driven effort and your contribution is important, it is indeed what makes us tick!

We basically agreed that we should try to resolve the remaining documentation issues for MEI v4 by the end of March, and then re-allow development of the MEI schema itself. Over the past year, we've made significant progress on re-aligning the Guidelines with the specs, and while there are some remaining issues, it seems contra-productive to further delay improvements of the schema. This means that we have another six weeks to address these remaining issues. On February 27, 1pm GMT, we plan to have an extra MEI "ODD Thursday", to discuss this work. The next regular "ODD Friday" will be on March 27, 1pm GMT. We would like to encourage people to help with the remaining work. If you can afford a couple of hours over the next few weeks to support MEI, please get in touch with me. Also, we have the (loose) plan to again provide a PDF version of the Guidelines in the future, as this seems to offer wider recognition, and thus helps to justify an investment of time. If someone could assist on this, please get in touch as well. The upcoming weeks will be pretty dense, but together, we should be able to make another huge step forward. Looking forward to see many of you on Thursday next week, jo From luca.ludovico at unimi.it Wed Feb 26 12:37:54 2020 From: luca.ludovico at unimi.it (luca.ludovico at unimi.it) Date: Wed, 26 Feb 2020 12:37:54 +0100 Subject: [MEI-L] Computer Supported Music Education @ CSEDU 2020 - Last call Message-ID: <00fc01d5ec99$2f8b7e00$8ea27a00$@unimi.it> [Apologies for cross-postings] [Please distribute] 12th International Conference on Computer Supported Education (CSEDU 2020) Special session on Computer Supported Music Education (CSME 2020) The International Conference on Computer Supported Education is a yearly meeting place for presenting and discussing new educational tools and environments, best practices and case studies on innovative technology-based learning strategies, and institutional policies on computer supported education including open and distance education.

Empirical Musicology Review: Special Issue on Open Science in Musicology Empirical musicology relies crucially on the creation, analysis, publication, and distribution of datasets. Despite the progress made over the past decades in this vibrating field, numerous issues regarding the sharing of data, the reproducibility of research findings, and the general role of transparency remain challenging. In many disciplines, these issues are addressed under the umbrella of the Open Science movement and the adherence to FAIR principles for scientific data management (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable; https://www.go-fair.org/fair-principles). To advance the state-of-the-art in data-based music research, Empirical Musicology Review is devoting a special issue to a wide discussion of questions related to Open Science and Open Data, and introduces a new section on data reports that will remain a permanent part of the journal in all subsequent issues. CfP: Research Articles and Think Pieces We invite papers that address general aspects of Open Science / Open Data, discuss challenges in the application of the FAIR principles to music research, or reflect upon methodological and meta questions. Papers may also describe the generation of particular datasets and explore their characteristics in the context of the overall topic of this special issue. We envisage to include contributions from a wide variety of domains, such as music theory, music psychology, music information retrieval, historical musicology etc. The data must be accessible in an open repository or database. Papers should be 3000–6000 words in length. CfP: Data Reports Starting with this special issue, EMR is introducing a new section on Data Reports. In order to promote Open Science and to facilitate reproducibility, empirical studies of music are increasingly relying on openly available corpora and datasets. Since the scientific value of creating, cleaning, curating, enabling access, and maintaining data is of the utmost importance, EMR invites researchers to share their datasets and to apply the FAIR principles. Data Reports may describe a variety of datasets such as musical metadata, annotations of musical corpora in symbolic or audio formats, automatically extracted musical features, data from psychological experiments etc. Data Reports should not exceed a word limit of 2000 words. Please register on http://emusicology.org/ and submit your contribution by 31 March, 2020. If you have any further questions, please get in touch with the guest editors: Fabian C.

As many of you are aware, among its activities MEI oversees the organization of an annual conference, the Music Encoding Conference (MEC), to provide a meeting place for scholars interested in discussing the modeling, generation and uses of music encoding. While the conference has an emphasis on the development and uses of MEI, other contributions related to general approaches to music encoding are always welcome, as an opportunity for exchange between scholars from various research communities, including technologists, librarians, historians, and theorists. In order to assist prospective organizers, the MEI Board has published Hosting Guidelinesfor the Music Encoding Conference . Historically, the conference has been organized by institutions involved in MEI, such as MEI member institutions or those hosting MEI-based projects, but proposals from any interested group or institution will be happily received, and ideas other than those expressed in the official document are welcome. While MEC venues have alternated between Europe and North America in the past, there is no such requirement, so applications from anywhere are invited. The deadline for sending proposals is *Sunday, 29 March **2020*.The Board will notify bidders of its decision in late April, and we will jointly inform the MEI community through MEI-L thereafter. Successful bidders should be prepared to make a short presentation at the upcoming MEC in Boston, 26-29 May 2020. The MEI Board is happy to discuss proposals at an early stage already. Please direct all proposals and inquiries to info at music-encoding.org On behalf of the MEI Board, best wishes, Elsa De Luca Researcher in Early Music at CESEM - FCSH, NOVA University of Lisbon Board member and administrative chair of the *Music Encoding Initiative *( MEI ) Board member of *Musicalia Antiquitatis & Medii Aevi*, Brepols (MUSAM ) Coordinator of Monodic Sources for the *Portuguese Early Music Database* (PEM ) https://sites.google.com/fcsh.unl.pt/elsadeluca/ https://cesem.fcsh.unl.pt/en/pessoa/elsa-de-luca/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

As of last night, the United States issued a travel ban on some travel from Europe to the United States for the next 30 days due to the COVID-19 (Corona virus). This week Tufts University issued an announcement to its community that all classes will be held remotely, asking all students to return to their homes by March 16 and not return until after the end of the spring semester. The University also identified its own restrictions on travel for employees and students, including cancelling gatherings and events at least through April 30. The health and safety of our entire community is important and while we have been looking forward to hosting this conference and welcoming so many colleagues and friends to Tufts University we must cancel the in-person conference. The Organizing, Program Committees, and MEI Board are exploring alternative options for a selection of the planned papers, presentations, workshops and meetings to be offered online and within the next week we will be in touch with everyone who has registered already or planned to attend the conference. We will make another announcement here on MEI-L by then.

The health and wellbeing of our community is our primary concern, and we have been monitoring the situation, attempting to figure out how best to plan for a conference in May. Most conferences have been canceling through the end of this semester, so it has been unclear what that would mean for a conference held outside of the semester. *Unfortunately, we will be postponing Future Directions of Music Cognition until further notice. *This is because of a number of factors, including the advice of our funding agency, the closure of the university campus, and the travel restrictions of many (if not most) conference attendees. At this moment, we are working on rescheduling the conference for some time in August, but this will require a number of adjustments that have yet to be made, including the reconfirmation of speakers and the securing of the venue. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. We will be happy to work with you in any way necessary.

Best regards, Fabian C. Moss and Markus Neuwirth ------ CfP Empirical Musicology Review: Special Issue on Open Science in Musicology ** With apologies for cross-posting ** Please forward to interested colleagues Dear colleagues, We would like to draw your attention to two calls for the journal Empirical Musicology Review. Empirical Musicology Review: Special Issue on Open Science in Musicology Empirical musicology relies crucially on the creation, analysis, publication, and distribution of datasets. Despite the progress made over the past decades in this vibrating field, numerous issues regarding the sharing of data, the reproducibility of research findings, and the general role of transparency remain challenging. In many disciplines, these issues are addressed under the umbrella of the Open Science movement and the adherence to FAIR principles for scientific data management (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable; https://www.go-fair.org/fair-principles). To advance the state-of-the-art in data-based music research, Empirical Musicology Review is devoting a special issue to a wide discussion of questions related to Open Science and Open Data, and introduces a new section on data reports that will remain a permanent part of the journal in all subsequent issues. CfP: Research Articles and Think Pieces We invite papers that address general aspects of Open Science / Open Data, discuss challenges in the application of the FAIR principles to music research, or reflect upon methodological and meta questions. Papers may also describe the generation of particular datasets and explore their characteristics in the context of the overall topic of this special issue. We envisage to include contributions from a wide variety of domains, such as music theory, music psychology, music information retrieval, historical musicology etc. The data must be accessible in an open repository or database. Papers should be 3000–6000 words in length. CfP: Data Reports Starting with this special issue, EMR is introducing a new section on Data Reports. In order to promote Open Science and to facilitate reproducibility, empirical studies of music are increasingly relying on openly available corpora and datasets. Since the scientific value of creating, cleaning, curating, enabling access, and maintaining data is of the utmost importance, EMR invites researchers to share their datasets and to apply the FAIR principles. Data Reports may describe a variety of datasets such as musical metadata, annotations of musical corpora in symbolic or audio formats, automatically extracted musical features, data from psychological experiments etc. Data Reports should not exceed a word limit of 2000 words. Please register on http://emusicology.org/ and submit your contribution by 31 March, 2020. If you have any further questions, please get in touch with the guest editors: Fabian C. Moss (fabian.moss at epfl.ch) and Markus Neuwirth ( markus.neuwirth at epfl.ch) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi, Richard, This message was in my outbox last week, but owing the abrupt lockdown of the campus last Thursday, it has been a bit chaotic here. You might want to consider Humdrum via the Humdrum Verovio Viewer. Although it might take an hour to two to become acquainted with the viewer itself, built-in tools and the allowance of filters in the code (left frame) makes these tasks simple. HVH imports kern, mei, and several other data formats. We just looked at preliminary elements of these procedures in our class (now discontinued for the rest of the quarter). See these links: http://bit-ly/humdrum-file-format https://wiki.ccarh.org/wiki/Humdrum_Lab_1 https://www.verovio.org/humdrum.xhtml End results come out in somewhat the same manner as in the Josquin Research Project (jrp.stanford.edu). https://josquin.stanford.edu/ If you pick a specific piece (I picked Isaac’s “Alla battaglia”; https://josquin.stanford.edu/work/?id=Isa3002) and scroll down the left side of the screen, you can select an analytical task and see it implemented in the score. This is the system of auto-recognized “imitations” in the same score: [cid:image002.jpg at 01D5F627.D11290F0] Compiling statistics in Humdrum takes a matter of minutes, at least for those who know three or four Unix commands. I'm sure an undergrad with CS skills and some score-reading ability could do this. Life is in total chaos here, but I think that's only because we are bit ahead of the curve.

It seems a bit arcane. What I did was to install tesseract via VietOCR3, which was developed to recognise Vietnamese script. https://sourceforge.net/projects/vietocr/ My tesseract setup (v. 4.1.1) is now somewhat strange: timc$ tesseract --list-langs Error opening data file /Users/timc/Documents/ocr/VietOCR3/tesseract-ocr/eng.traineddata Please make sure the TESSDATA_PREFIX environment variable is set to your "tessdata" directory. Failed loading language 'eng' Tesseract couldn't load any languages! List of available languages (5): tessdata/deu tessdata/eng tessdata/lat tessdata/osd tessdata/vie timc$ echo $TESSDATA_PREFIX /Users/timc/Documents/ocr/VietOCR3/tesseract-ocr/ If this doesn’t help (and it hardly counts as useful instructions, I admit) I have found the main developer of Audiveris (Hervé Bitteur - herve.bitteur at audiveris.com ) extremely responsive and helpful in the past. I suspect the same may be true of the developer of VietOCR3, Quan Ngueyen - https://sourceforge.net/u/nguyenq/profile/ , though you will have to contact him/her through SourceForge. Another admission: I haven’t done anything with this for a year or two. My idea was to set up a system which would take output data from Aruspix concerning location of bits of text, especially lyrics, and feed them as tiny tasks to Tesseract, then merge the recognised lyrics appropriately into the Aruspix MEI. As you might imagine, this is one of those projects that seems a lot simpler before you start, and I only got to the stage of recognising some ‘lyrics’ from 16c motets as text which I was (sometimes) able to identify using *very* approximate matching and a certain amount of manual guesswork with the Liber Usualis. BTW all this was without any training for the fonts, styles, abbreviations and strange text-glyphs you find in 16c prints. I think this is a valid Special Interest Sub-group idea for MEI, as it really is the next thing that is needed for corpus-building in early music. Also, BTW, with a working tesseract installation, Audiveris does a pretty fair job with lyrics in ‘normal’ music.

Message-ID: <4C3A0935-3281-428C-BC62-F8BED36DCA33@tufts.edu> Dear Colleagues, We appreciate your patience while the Organizing and Program Committees along with the MEI Board worked to identify next steps for the canceled Music Encoding Conference. One positive piece of news that we’d like to share is that we will hold a lighter version of this conference in a virtual setting. There will be no charge for the virtual conference. Details for the virtual conference are still being determined and will be shared in the next few weeks via email and on the conference website, https://music-encoding.org/conference/2020/. Please note that the MEC will resume as an in-person conference in succeeding years. We will refund all registration fees that have been paid. We ask that registered participants, including students who were awarded bursaries, send an email to conference2020 at music-encoding.org indicating whether they would like to * Receive a full reimbursement; * Receive a credit towards next year’s MEC; * Contribute your registration fee to a fund for student bursaries in succeeding years. Due to the cancellation of the in-person conference, student bursaries will not be awarded this year. We are currently exploring the following formats for the virtual conference via Zoom and Slack: * Keynote presentations; * Short session with papers and posters presented as 3-minute lightning talks; * Longer session for discussion of papers and posters via Slack channels; * Spaces to facilitate community work (e.g. interest group meetings, spontaneous user groups); * Moderated town hall; * Workshops The Program Committee Chair will reach out to individuals with accepted papers, posters, and workshops to ask if they are interested in participating in a virtual conference and to identify next steps. As plans solidify for the virtual conference, we will share updates and instructions for joining the virtual conference via the MEI-list, on the Music Encoding Conference website and through other channels. We hope that you and your loved ones are healthy and safe during this world-wide public health crisis. With best wishes, Anna E.

Motets (and later on, mass movements too) are very commonly based on a tenor melody that is sung two or more times. A very common layout for motets copied in parts in manuscripts is that the tenor melody is written once, and usually some sign or written instruction at the end of the tenor indicates the number of times it is to be sung. In our score encodings, we are trying to figure out the best way of encoding these repeats of the tenor melody when lining the voices into a score, and wondered if the community had any advice. We have narrowed it down to either @corresp or @copyof as an attribute of note and rest and wondered if one might be preferable to the other. This is how the parts vs. the score would be encoded (in the following example the tenor has only four notes and that the tenor is supposed to be repeated once, i.e., is stated twice altogether): *Parts*
*Score*
Which would be better @corresp or @copyof?

The conference will include: * a day of virtual workshops on May 26 * two days of presentations on May 27-28, each one led by a virtual keynote * the MEC members’ meeting * self-organized meetings of interest groups on May 28 and 29 The opening keynote presentation on May 27 will be by Timothy Duguid (University of Glasgow), and the closing keynote on May 28 will be by Estelle Joubert (Dalhousie University). Following each keynote presentation, we’ll hold a virtual “slam” session with 3-minute presentations, followed by a breakout session where participants can ask questions, discuss individual presentations in smaller groups, and mingle virtually. Papers will be pre-circulated to enable wider access and more substantive discussion. While we’ll miss seeing each other in person, we hope this format will offer a great opportunity for exchange of ideas. We’re very grateful to our keynote speakers, workshop organizers, and paper and poster presenters for embarking on this adventure with us! Registration is now open at https://www.conftool.net/music-encoding2020. If you have already registered, there is no need to register again. If you have not yet registered, please do so by May 19, 2020. The virtual conference program can be accessed online at https://music-encoding.org/conference/2020/program/. The conference will be held in a combination of Zoom (for the keynotes, workshops, slam sessions, and other meetings) and Slack (for discussion and other conference-related communications). Registered participants will receive instructions for joining both of these via email. We look forward to seeing you at V-MEC!

The use case is creating teaching/testing sheets for music theory and aural training classes (so the target repertoire would be mostly common western notation). My first approach was to create a Scribus script that draws staff- and barlines from rectangles that have been drawn over the systems. While this works surprisingly well it is still a tedious work for longer and full scores. AFAIK the detection of staff- and barlines is basically a solved challenge in OMR. Could somebody point me towards the potentially easiest approach I should explore? Algorithms, libraries, ready-to-use tools? What I need is something that analyses (multipage) sheet music from image or PDF files and produces a structured text file with all the relevant coordinates, or anything from which I can instruct some tool (whether Inkscape, Scribus, LilyPond or whatever) to generate the empty sheet music to overlay over the scanned score. Thank you for any pointers Urs PS: Do you agree with me that trying to somehow *remove* the musical content from a scanned image is a much less promising approach?

You may preview those boxes by clicking on a file name after the file has been recognized. However, it doesn't tell you how many staves will need to go in there, so this approach needs some more steps in a toolchain before you get your results, but they will depend on your preferred tools and so on. I'm sure other approaches are equally possible… All best, jo > Am 30.04.2020 um 09:41 schrieb Urs Liska

This is obviously a great tool that will help me to (maybe finally) implement a long-standing wish of mine for pimping up the Frescobaldi manuscript viewer ( https://github.com/frescobaldi/frescobaldi/issues/923#issuecomment-621697927 ). > However, it doesn't tell you how many staves will need to go in > there, so this approach needs some more steps in a toolchain before > you get your results, I have the impression that the tool is focused on something else, and I don't know whether it is worth exploring it in the direction I need (especially because I'm sure there are other existing tools that *do* look for the same thing I do).

For the project at hand I'm not so much interested in a way to reimplement algorithms but rather in tools that can be used in a scripted environment. So probably I'll rather have a closer look at Audiveris. But such a library, especially as Python, is definitely something very interesting regarding my longer-term ideas for Frescobaldi. I'm shocked to see how long it has been since we added the manuscript viewer to it, but it had always been my plan to push it more into the direction of an editorial tool (in the sense of music editing vs. code editing).

We welcome submissions from this list. Text of CfP below and at https://francescagiannetti.com/notes-cfp/. With kind regards, Francesca Giannetti Digital Humanities Librarian Rutgers University–New Brunswick francesca.giannetti at rutgers.edu --- Call for Papers | Special Issue of *Notes* on “Digital Humanities and Music Pedagogy” | Deadline: September 18, 2020 We invite submissions to a special issue of *Notes* entitled “Digital Humanities and Music Pedagogy” that will explore the current state of thought and practice at the intersections of the digital humanities and social sciences, music information, and graduate, undergraduate, and continuing education in music. The goal of this issue is to better understand the influence of digital methodologies on the formation of music researchers. To that end, we aim to explore current cross-disciplinary work where information specialists, technicians, ethnomusicologists and musicologists, theorists, performers, and composers strive in tandem to construct learning environments in which new questions, different interpretive angles, wider contextual frames, and humanizing influences are brought to the fore in musical study. We encourage the following types of submission: - Short, 2,000 to 4,000 word position papers on the ways in which the methods, techniques, and collaborative infrastructures of the digital humanities and social sciences further pedagogical work in music, in and outside of the academy - Research articles of up to 10,000 words exploring case studies, best practices, theoretical approaches, and critically examined experiments in digital methods and forms of presentation with students in music and music librarianship Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Explorations of the implications of the digital humanities and social sciences for the current and future study of music - The intersections of the human and the digital in music study, including constructions of personal and social identity along the lines of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, class, disability, religion, nation, and age - Examinations of labor equity, power, and precarity in digital humanities/digital musicological pedagogy - (Re)examinations of our approaches to music pedagogy and to the digital at moments of global or local crisis, trauma, and uncertainty, including the COVID-19 pandemic. - Digital humanities and digital social science in the music classroom as an incubator for student-, librarian-, or faculty-led digital projects - Challenges and obstacles to the adoption of digital modes of analysis and presentation among music students, scholars, and librarians, within the library or the academy - Digital pedagogical approaches that center student research questions and foster the creation of student communities of practice - Critical approaches to the curation, analysis, presentation, and preservation of music data and metadata that excavate and make manifest embedded assumptions and biases - Pedagogical explorations of models of music data and of music information systems that reveal the seams of their construction and the tensions of part versus whole Manuscript submissions are due *September 18, 2020*. Questions and expressions of interest may be sent to the guest editor, Francesca Giannetti, Digital Humanities Librarian at Rutgers University–New Brunswick, at fg162 at rutgers.edu.

It provides a forum for musicians, musicologists, librarians, and technologists to share findings and expertise. CALL FOR PAPERS We are calling for paper submissions in two tracks: a ‘proceedings’ track for short and full papers; and a ‘Trompa Challenge’ track for position papers proposing novel ways of bringing libraries and archives to home users. Details of both are provided below. Proceedings will be published in ACM ICPS, and we expect this to be an Open Access publication. BACKGROUND While Digital Libraries have long offered facilities to provide multimedia content, the requirements of systems for library music are complex. The many forms taken by musical data, the needs for connections between these, and the importance of scholarly and historical contextual information all require special care to support meaningful engagement with the materials. The Digital Libraries for Musicology (DLfM) conference presents a venue specifically for those working on, and with, Digital Library systems and content in the domain of music and musicology. This includes Music Digital Library systems, their application and use in musicology, technologies for enhanced access and organisation of musics in Digital Libraries, bibliographic and metadata for music, intersections with music Linked Data, and the challenges of working with the multiple representations of music across large-scale digital collections such as the Internet Archive and HathiTrust. DLfM focuses on the implications of music for Digital Libraries and Digital Libraries research, especially when pushing the boundaries of contemporary musicology through the application of techniques such as reported in more technologically-oriented fora such as ISMIR and ICMC. This, the seventh DLfM conference follows previous workshops in The Hague, Paris, New York, Shanghai, Knoxville and London. We are proud to be a satellite event of the annual International Society for Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR) conference for the fifth time, an association that encourages reflection on the use of MIR methods and technologies within Music Digital Library systems when applied to the pursuit of musicological research. CONFERENCE OBJECTIVES - to act as a forum for reporting, presenting, evaluating and disseminating work combining technology with musicology through Digital Library systems; - to critically evaluate the operation of Music Digital Libraries and the applications and findings that flow from them; - to re-evaluate existing Music Digital Libraries, particularly in light of the transformative methods and applications emerging from musicology, large collections of both audio and music-related data, ‘big data’ method, and MIR; - to explore how digital libraries and digital musicology can combine to offer richer online access to online music collections; - to set the agenda for work in the field to address these new challenges and opportunities. TOPICS Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Building and managing digital music collections - Optical music recognition - Information literacies for Music Digital Libraries - Data quality assessment - Access, interfaces, and ergonomics - Interfaces and access mechanisms for Music Digital Libraries - Identification/location of music (in all forms) in generic Digital Libraries - Musical corpus-building at scale - Techniques for locating and accessing music in very large Digital Libraries (e.g. HathiTrust, Internet Archive) - Mechanisms for combining multi-form music content within and between Digital Libraries and other digital resources - User information needs and behaviour for Music Digital Libraries - Musicological knowledge - Music data representations, including manuscripts/scores and audio - Applied MIR techniques in Music Digital Libraries and musicological investigations using them - Extraction of musical concepts from symbolic notation and audio data - Metadata and metadata schemas for music - Application of Linked Data and Semantic Web techniques to Music Digital Libraries, and for their access and organisation - Ontologies and categorisation of musics and music artefacts - Improving data for musicology - Digital Libraries which enrich public access to music, music-cultural, and music-ephemera material online - Digital Libraries in support of musicology and other scholarly study; novel requirements and methodologies therein - Digital Libraries for combination of resources in support of musicology (e.g. combining audio, scores, bibliographic, geographic, ethnomusicology, performance, etc.) SUBMISSIONS Papers for each track will be peer reviewed by 2-3 members of the programme committee. For accepted submissions on either track, at least one author must register for the conference (as a presenter) by 11 September 2020. Please produce your paper using the ACM template and submit it to DLfM on EasyChair by 31st July 2020 (see IMPORTANT DATES). All submitted papers must: - be written in English; - contain author names, affiliations, and e-mail addresses; - be formatted according to the ACM SIG Proceedings template, using a Type 1 font no smaller than 9pt; - be in PDF format (please ensure that the PDF can be viewed on any platform), and formatted for A4 size. Page limits for submitted papers apply to all text, but exclude the bibliography (i.e. references can be included on pages over the specified limits). The ACM now uses a partially-automated workflow, which supports multiple-format publication and more accessible articles. Authors will need to follow carefully the instructions at https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions It is the authors’ responsibility to ensure that their submissions adhere strictly to the required format. Submissions that do not comply with the above requirements may be rejected without review. Please note that at least one author from each accepted paper must attend the conference to present their work (this may be physical or virtual—see COVID-19 CONTINGENCIES below). Submissions: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dlfm2020 Contact email: dlfm2020 at easychair.org Proceedings track submissions We invite full papers (up to 8 pages excluding references) or short papers (up to 4 pages excluding references). Authors of accepted submissions to these tracks are expected to submit corrected, camera-ready copies, which must be received by 11 September. ‘Proceedings track’ papers will be published in ACM ICPS. Trompa Challenge submissions Most of us will by now have experienced the frustrations and rewards of carrying out musical research in a domestic environment, with access to neither the physical nor the technical resources of libraries and labs. The Trompa Challenge solicits short position papers that address questions of how musicological materials can be made more accessible and useful to home users at all levels. Submissions should be up to 2 pages long. Trompa Challenge papers will be peer reviewed and presented at the conference as a poster, a lightning talk, or part of a panel. Challenge papers will not be included in the main DLfM proceedings, but will be compiled into a supplement hosted on the conference website. At least one author must register to attend the conference by 11 September. COVID-19 CONTINGENCIES In light of the extraordinary circumstances presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, the DLfM Steering Committee is regularly reviewing and updating plans to ensure a successful conference in 2020. At the current time (May 2020) we continue preparations for a DLfM 2020 conference with a physical component in Montréal, Canada, on 16 October 2020. The health and safety of DLfM participants is paramount, and our programme and venue will be adjusted to comply with social distancing guidance. We recognise that some authors and attendees may be unable to travel in October due to COVID-19, and will ensure they are able to join the conference virtually. As the wider situation evolves, we remain attentive to the possibility of a fully virtual conference and, should this prove necessary, have prepared contingency plans according to a range of potential logistical and financial ramifications. In the meantime, authors should be reassured that: - DLfM 2020 proceedings will be published as a volume of ACM ICPS, whether the conference is a physical, virtual, or hybrid event; - all accepted proceedings track papers will be included in our ACM proceedings, whether presented physically or virtually; - all accepted papers will need to have a registered presenter (physical or virtual) by the camera-ready deadline, in line with the usual rules and timetable; - presenting authors should assume an attendance fee of approximately $70-100 USD (in May 2020: 95-140 CAD / 65-95 EUR) for physical and virtual attendance; - attendance fees will be kept to a minimum, however a fully virtual conference may necessitate fees at the higher end of this range and/or removal of the open access version of the proceedings; - virtual attendees should assume the conference will continue to be aligned with the timezone of Montréal, Canada (EDT). We will confirm arrangements for the conference by 28 August 2020 (the acceptance notification date) at the latest. Updates will be emailed directly to authors of submitted papers and posted to the DLfM 2020 website.

It provides a forum for musicians, musicologists, librarians, and technologists to share findings and expertise. CALL FOR PAPERS We are calling for paper submissions in two tracks: a ‘proceedings’ track for short and full papers; and a ‘Trompa Challenge’ track for position papers proposing novel ways of bringing libraries and archives to home users. Details of both are provided below. Proceedings will be published in ACM ICPS, and we expect this to be an Open Access publication. BACKGROUND While Digital Libraries have long offered facilities to provide multimedia content, the requirements of systems for library music are complex. The many forms taken by musical data, the needs for connections between these, and the importance of scholarly and historical contextual information all require special care to support meaningful engagement with the materials. The Digital Libraries for Musicology (DLfM) conference presents a venue specifically for those working on, and with, Digital Library systems and content in the domain of music and musicology. This includes Music Digital Library systems, their application and use in musicology, technologies for enhanced access and organisation of musics in Digital Libraries, bibliographic and metadata for music, intersections with music Linked Data, and the challenges of working with the multiple representations of music across large-scale digital collections such as the Internet Archive and HathiTrust. DLfM focuses on the implications of music for Digital Libraries and Digital Libraries research, especially when pushing the boundaries of contemporary musicology through the application of techniques such as reported in more technologically-oriented fora such as ISMIR and ICMC. This, the seventh DLfM conference follows previous workshops in The Hague, Paris, New York, Shanghai, Knoxville and London. We are proud to be a satellite event of the annual International Society for Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR) conference for the fifth time, an association that encourages reflection on the use of MIR methods and technologies within Music Digital Library systems when applied to the pursuit of musicological research. CONFERENCE OBJECTIVES - to act as a forum for reporting, presenting, evaluating and disseminating work combining technology with musicology through Digital Library systems; - to critically evaluate the operation of Music Digital Libraries and the applications and findings that flow from them; - to re-evaluate existing Music Digital Libraries, particularly in light of the transformative methods and applications emerging from musicology, large collections of both audio and music-related data, ‘big data’ method, and MIR; - to explore how digital libraries and digital musicology can combine to offer richer online access to online music collections; - to set the agenda for work in the field to address these new challenges and opportunities. TOPICS Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Building and managing digital music collections - Optical music recognition - Information literacies for Music Digital Libraries - Data quality assessment - Access, interfaces, and ergonomics - Interfaces and access mechanisms for Music Digital Libraries - Identification/location of music (in all forms) in generic Digital Libraries - Musical corpus-building at scale - Techniques for locating and accessing music in very large Digital Libraries (e.g. HathiTrust, Internet Archive) - Mechanisms for combining multi-form music content within and between Digital Libraries and other digital resources - User information needs and behaviour for Music Digital Libraries - Musicological knowledge - Music data representations, including manuscripts/scores and audio - Applied MIR techniques in Music Digital Libraries and musicological investigations using them - Extraction of musical concepts from symbolic notation and audio data - Metadata and metadata schemas for music - Application of Linked Data and Semantic Web techniques to Music Digital Libraries, and for their access and organisation - Ontologies and categorisation of musics and music artefacts - Improving data for musicology - Digital Libraries which enrich public access to music, music-cultural, and music-ephemera material online - Digital Libraries in support of musicology and other scholarly study; novel requirements and methodologies therein - Digital Libraries for combination of resources in support of musicology (e.g. combining audio, scores, bibliographic, geographic, ethnomusicology, performance, etc.) SUBMISSIONS Papers for each track will be peer reviewed by 2-3 members of the programme committee. For accepted submissions on either track, at least one author must register for the conference (as a presenter) by 11 September 2020. Please produce your paper using the ACM template and submit it to DLfM on EasyChair by 31st July 2020 (see IMPORTANT DATES). All submitted papers must: - be written in English; - contain author names, affiliations, and e-mail addresses; - be formatted according to the ACM SIG Proceedings template, using a Type 1 font no smaller than 9pt; - be in PDF format (please ensure that the PDF can be viewed on any platform), and formatted for A4 size. Page limits for submitted papers apply to all text, but exclude the bibliography (i.e. references can be included on pages over the specified limits). The ACM now uses a partially-automated workflow, which supports multiple-format publication and more accessible articles. Authors will need to follow carefully the instructions at https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions It is the authors’ responsibility to ensure that their submissions adhere strictly to the required format. Submissions that do not comply with the above requirements may be rejected without review. Please note that at least one author from each accepted paper must attend the conference to present their work (this may be physical or virtual—see COVID-19 CONTINGENCIES below).

As far as I can tell, it requires and elements to be inside elements, and never at the same level as them, in the . I've attached two minimal examples to illustrate. In the online documentation, however, custos and clefs are listed as being contained by elements as well as elements (This seems more natural to me than having them strictly within syllables). The MEI-all schema does successfully validate both of my attached examples. So, my question is - is this incorrect behavior from the schema, or is there a mistake in the documentation, or is there something else I might be missing?

Trompa Challenge submissions Most of us will by now have experienced the frustrations and rewards of carrying out musical research in a domestic environment, with access to neither the physical nor the technical resources of libraries and labs. The Trompa Challenge solicits short position papers that address questions of how musicological materials can be made more accessible and useful to home users at all levels. Submissions should be up to 2 pages long. Trompa Challenge papers will be peer reviewed and presented at the conference as a poster, a lightning talk, or part of a panel. Challenge papers will not be included in the main DLfM proceedings, but will be compiled into a supplement hosted on the conference website. At least one author must register to attend the conference (virtually) by 11 September. ATTENDANCE The conference will be aligned with the timezone of Montréal, Canada (EDT). Presenting authors should expect an attendance fee of $95-140 CAD (c. $70-100 USD / €65-95 EUR). We will try to keep this fee at the lower end of the range. Non-presenting authors and others who wish to attend should expect a fee of $5-25 CAD (c. $5-20 USD / €5-20 EUR).

In case you don't know them, this is a new society of historians, philologists and humanities technologists whose goal is to "promote open standards for digital editions and free software based on them" (e-editiones.org). The main people are the makers of TEI-Publisher, an app built on the XML native database eXist-db for publishing scholarly edited corpora in TEI. Dennis and I bumped into each other there because we both work on TEI-related projects. During our conversations with Wolfgang Meier (the creator of eXist) and others of E-E, we ended up mentioning MEI and suggesting some use cases where music notation is found in verbal documents (to be encoded with in TEI). As a result, they invited us to give a presentation in one of their monthly community meetups. We thought that, apart from discussing our specific needs, it could be a nice opportunity to spread the word about MEI. Our very simple presentation was well received, we guess, as they are already working at supporting MEI through Verovio! Dennis and I have agreed to work with them to supply some real TEI+MEI examples of different nature and age, for a future minor release of this TEI-Publisher tool. All in all, we thought that this may be of interest to others dealing with mixed verbal/musical materials. Anyone who wants to know more please see their blog post (https://e-editiones.org/music-is-in-the-air) and of course feel free to contact us. All the best, Giuliano and Dennis P.S. We are also pleased to see that Wolfgang Meier and Magdalena Turska are offering a course on TEI-Publisher at the Edirom Summer School (https://ess.uni-paderborn.de/2020/programm.html#teiPublisher) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

While we certainly have room to talk about other open issues, I'd like to use the meeting to coordinate our next steps to go back from the Guidelines being expressed in Markdown towards an ODD encoding, as agreed earlier this year. Our plan is still to make that transition in November, and there are some open issues to consider. Again, the meeting is open to everyone who's interested in technical talk about all things MEI, and we're always happy to welcome newcomers, so don't hesitate to join.

That way, we can better ensure consistency. This means, however, that contributions to the Guidelines repo at https://github.com/music-encoding/guidelines are only possible before the transition, with some ample time to resolve remaining open issues. The transition is scheduled for November 9-14, but the deadline for any new pull requests against this repo is already on October 26. If you are currently preparing a pull request against this repo, please submit it no later than that date, or delay your contributions until after the transition, and into the new setup. Here is the schedule for the transition: Friday, 2020-10-16, 12pm UTC: ODD Friday We will discuss (and hopefully) resolve open issues and PRs we already have. Monday, 2020-10-26: Deadline for new PRs / issues Changes proposed after this date will not be considered for this repo anymore. Thursday, 2020-10-29, 12pm UTC: ODD Thursday All remaining issues will be addressed before the transition. 2020-11-12 – 2020-11-14: Transition of the Guidelines into the main repository We have scheduled a developer workshop for this week, which will be held (primarily) online. During this workshop, we will implement the actual transition. We definitely welcome newcomers during this workshop (details will follow later). The online MEI Guidelines may be temporarily down for maintenance in that week. Monday, 2020-11-16: Contributions welcome If all goes well, we will be able to accept contributions again :) We believe that this transition is in the interest of everyone using MEI, and try to minimize downtimes as much as possible. If you would like to learn more about the transition or would like to contribute, please get in touch. Thanks to everyone who just joined our today's ODD Friday, where we discussed this schedule and the next steps that need to be done.

Deadline for applying is 1 November 2020. For a full description and online application form see https://www.uu.nl/en/organisation/working-at-utrecht-university/jobs/phd-position-in-big-data-history-of-music-10-fte . Please forward this message to whoever may be interested. Best regards, Frans Wiering Job description The documented history of western music spans over a millennium. Generations of scholars have written detailed accounts of compositional techniques, musical styles and genres, and influential composers and their masterworks. Hidden below the great variety of western music are long-term patterns of historical change, which are more difficult to study when using traditional close reading methods of musicology. Computational approaches analysing large amounts of musical works may help to unearth these patterns. During the 16th and 17th centuries a transition took place from modality, with its emphasis on melodic structures, to harmonic tonality governed by chord progressions. Musicologists still struggle to understand this transition based on the study of individual compositions. The project /Computational ANalysis/ /of TOnal STRuctures in EArly Music (CANTOSTREAM)/ proposes a big data approach instead. The project’s aim is to create and use machine learning methods for ‘distant listening’ to a large cross-section of the available music, in order to a gain deeper insight into the historical development of tonal structures during these centuries. As the prospective PhD candidate on this 5-year project, you will be involved in studying the large body of early music that has been recorded since the late 1960s. In addition, you will analyse collections of encoded scores and large-scale metadata resources such as RISM. Relevant features include modes, scales, dissonance, cadences, melodic and harmonic patterns. We offer a diverse set of tasks: * assemble the musical corpus; * select and operationalise relevant musical concepts; * review, create and evaluate machine learning methods for the analysis of musical corpora; * analyse historical change in relation to factors such as geographical origin, genre, function and ensemble composition; * relate the outcomes to musicological insights and research problems. In addition, you will partake in teaching Bachelor's and Master's courses, offered by the Department of Information and Computing Sciences. The teaching commitments are limited to a maximum of 30% of employment time. Qualifications We are looking for a candidate who is versatile and persistent and who has: * a Master’s degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Information Science, Computational Musicology or a related field; * well-developed programming skills; * a strong motivation for interdisciplinary research; * a working knowledge of music (notation, basic theory); * a passion for music history; * affinity for academic teaching; * good communication skills in English, both in speech and in writing. Offer We offer an exciting opportunity to contribute to an ambitious and international education programme with highly motivated students and to conduct your own research project at a renowned research university. You will receive appropriate training, personal supervision, and guidance for both your research and teaching tasks, which will provide an excellent start to an academic career. In addition, you will have * the opportunity to work in a collaborative, social, and dedicated team of Researchers; * a full-time position for 5 years; * a full-time gross salary that starts at €2,395 and increases to €3,061 per month in the fourth year (scale P of the Collective Labour Agreement Dutch Universities (cao)); * benefits including 8% holiday bonus and 8.3% end-of-year bonus; * a pension scheme, partially paid parental leave, and flexible employment conditions based on the Collective Labour Agreement Dutch Universities. In addition to the employment conditions laid down in the cao for Dutch Universities, Utrecht University has a number of its own arrangements. For example, there are agreements on professional development, leave arrangements and sports. We also give you the opportunity to expand your terms of employment yourself via the Employment Conditions Selection Model. This is how we like to encourage you to continue to grow. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- dr.

We are pleased to announce our call for papers, posters, panels, and workshops for the Music Encoding Conference 2021. As an important cross-disciplinary venue for all who are interested in the digital representation of music, the Music Encoding Conference is open to and brings together members from various encoding, analysis, and music research communities, including musicologists, theorists, librarians, technologists, music scholars, teachers, and students, and provides an opportunity for learning and engaging with and from each other. The MEC 2021 will take place 25–28 May 2021 at Universidad de Alicante, Spain. It is co-sponsored with the Instituto Superior de Enseñanzas Artísticas de la Comunidad Valenciana. Please pay attention to a revised submission process and schedule compared to previous years (see submission section below for details). Background Music encoding is a critical component for fields and areas of study including computational or digital musicology, digital editions, symbolic music information retrieval, digital libraries, digital pedagogy, or the wider music industry. The Music Encoding Conference has emerged as the foremost international forum where researchers and practitioners from across these varied fields can meet and explore new developments in music encoding and its use. The Conference celebrates a multidisciplinary program, combining the latest advances from established music encodings, novel technical proposals and encoding extensions, and the presentation or evaluation of new practical applications of music encoding (e.g. in academic study, libraries, editions, pedagogy, commercial products). Pre-conference workshops provide an opportunity to quickly engage with best practice in the community. Newcomers are encouraged to submit to the main program with articulations of the potential for music encoding in their work, highlighting strengths and weaknesses of existing approaches within this context. Following the formal program, an unconference session fosters collaboration in the community through the meeting of Interest Groups, and self-selected discussions on hot topics that emerge during the conference. For these meetings, there are various spaces generously provided by the hosting institution on May 28. Please be in touch with conference organizers if you need to reserve these spaces. For meetings on May 26 or 27 availability can be checked upon request. The program welcomes contributions from all those working on, or with, any music encoding. In addition, the Conference serves as a focus event for the Music Encoding Initiative community, with its annual community meeting scheduled the day following the main program. We in particular seek to broaden the scope of musical repertories considered, and to provide a welcoming, inclusive community for all who are interested in this work. Topics The conference welcomes contributions from all those who are developing or applying music encodings in their work and research. Topics include, but are not limited to: * data structures for music encoding * music encoding standardisation * music encoding interoperability / universality * methodologies for encoding, music editing, description and analysis * computational analysis of encoded music * rendering of symbolic music data in audio and graphical forms * conceptual encoding of relationships between multimodal music forms (e.g. symbolic music data, encoded text, facsimile images, audio) * capture, interchange, and re-purposing of musical data and metadata * ontologies, authority files, and linked data in music encoding and description * (symbolic) music information retrieval using music encoding * evaluation of music encodings * best practice in approaches to music encoding and the use or application of music encodings in: * music theory and analysis * digital musicology and, more broadly, digital humanities * digital editions * music digital libraries * bibliographies and bibliographic studies * catalogues and collection management * composition * performance * teaching and learning * search and browsing * multimedia music presentation, exploration, and exhibition * machine learning approaches. Submissions MEC is working towards a submission process that facilitates access to the proceedings at about the time of the conference. Therefore, unlike previous years, all but panels or workshop submissions are expected to be full-paper submissions (8–10 pages for 20min talks, 4–5 pages for posters). All submissions will be reviewed by multiple members of the program committee before acceptance. Please note the following deadlines for the submission process: 10 January: Registration via our ConfTool website: www.conftool.net/music-encoding2021 (available from October 2020) with metadata of contributors including name(s) of author(s), affiliation(s) and email address(es), type and title of the submission, and a short one-paragraph abstract. 17 January: Upload of anonymized submissions (see submission guidelines below) for review to ConfTool. Please be aware that ConfTool does only accept PDF submissions. Please remove all identifying information from the submitted PDF before the upload. 8 March: Notification of acceptance and invitation to authors of accepted submissions to contribute to the MEC proceedings. A formatted template pre-configured with your metadata will be provided on or about the day after notification. 5 April: Upload of accepted submissions in conference-ready version using the provided template. The uploaded version will be made available to all attendees before the conference. 25–28 May: Conference. 14 June: Final upload of camera-ready papers for publication in the proceedings. The MEC proceedings will be published under an open access license and with an individual DOI number for all papers. We especially encourage students and other first time attendees to make a submission to the Music Encoding Conference. We are seeking ways to support their attendance. (Please get in touch with conference organizers.) Submission Guidelines All submissions should be formatted in A4 size with 2.5cm margins, font size 12, single space, justified, in a sans-serif typeface (e.g. Calibri) according to this template: https://tinyurl.com/mec2021-submission-template (Please take care to remove all identifying information from the submitted PDF before the upload.) The following submission types are expected to be full-paper submissions: * paper (8–10 pages), * poster (4–5 pages). The following types are welcome to be abstract submissions: * panel discussions (3–5 pages; submissions should describe the topic and nature of the discussion, along with the main theses and objectives of the proposed contributions, as well as short biographies of the participants; panel discussions are not expected to be a set of papers which could otherwise be submitted as individual papers; in order to be included in the conference proceedings, the panel discussions should be expanded and elaborated into full-paper format of 10–15 pages), * half- or full-day pre-conference workshops (3–5 pages; proposals should include possible conveners, a description of the workshop’s objective and proposed duration, as well as its logistical and technical requirements). The PC will coordinate the actual duration of proposed panels and workshops in consultation with the local organizers and contributors. Additional information As learned from the virtual MEC 2020, the imponderables of a global pandemic require to prepare everything with a possible hybrid (or even totally virtual) conference in mind. The decision on the final format of the conference can therefore only be made on a site-specific, short-term basis in the months leading up to the event. It will be communicated widely through the official channels (conference web page, mailing list, Twitter). In any case, we are seeking ways to make parts of the conference available online independent of the global developments. Additional details regarding registration, accommodation, etc. will be announced on the conference web page (https://music-encoding.org/conference/2021/). In case of questions, feel free to contact: conference2021 at music-encoding.org.

The latest version of MerMEId strongly encourages installation using Docker, and the Docker installation in turn requires a .war file from an eXist database servlet. On the other hand, eXist has now moved strongly towards operating as a standalone server: "We dropped support for building WAR files, as it was something we haven't really supported in a long time. Also running eXist-db inside a Servlet Container as a WAR has its own issues that were holding us back." (https://sourceforge.net/p/exist/mailman/message/36656900/ from May 2019) What is the most sustainable way forward for installing a new MerMEId setup (with old data) on Docker? Do we need to use eXist pre v5? or is there a way to work with a more recent, standalone version (say with Docker compose)? Any ideas from the community or any experience with this would be really helpful.

That looks like exactly what we need. So we have an existing catalogue, built with an old version of MerMEId. What is the recommended way to rebuild? I'm guessing that I should be able to put the catalogue xml itself into the /data directory if I build from source, but for the page xquery files that were previously in exist in /cat-site, is there a place that I should put them, or a programmatic way to load them in? Thanks, David P.S. If these questions look naïve, it's because I last installed MerMEId years ago, and can only vaguely remember how it works. I don't spend a lot of time with the Java stack, and certainly not with software like eXist or Orbeon. > On 26 Oct 2020, at 13:58, Peter Stadler wrote: > > Hi David, > > I’m happy to share the news that there’s a combined effort to refactor MerMEId, using eXist5 and a recent Orbeon version.

It showcases the powers of the standard by facilitating the editions of great work catalogues, and it pushed the development of the meta data section of the MEI header itself. Regrettably, the Royal Danish Library—who supported this development for several years—ceased its support and the core developers Axel Geertinger and Sigfrid Lundberg were not able to work on the MerMEId anymore. Yet, they released the MerMEId code at GitHub for others (= us) to maintain it and develop it further. Some work has already been done to facilitate the deployment of the MerMEId and to update its eXistdb and Orbeon core—a big shoutout and thank you to Zsofia Abraham, Omar Siam, Clemens Gubsch, and Daniel Schopper from the Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage! Since others also expressed their interest in the documentation and further development of the MerMEId, we thought it’d be best to foster these activities around the GitHub fork at https://github.com/Edirom/MerMEId by regular (monthly) community calls and eventually a dedicated Slack channel under music-encoding.slack.com?! Long story short: if you’re interested in the development of the MerMEId and would like to contribute, please join us for the first MerMEId community call on Monday, Dec. 14, at 3:30 PM (GMT+1) via Zoom https://uni-paderborn-de.zoom.us/j/93200725368?pwd=RG93T1JTemRQY2dadGIrOTRVeTlGQT09 Meeting-ID: 932 0072 5368 Code: 841840 At this (very) first meeting we’ll try to outline the current status of the MerMEId and identify and discuss next steps.

Message-ID: <690138FE-240A-482E-A111-A30D1E982E87@tufts.edu> Deadline for expressions of interest in opportunities below: 15 January 2021 Dear Colleagues, The MEI Pedagogy Interest Group met on December 15 (view meeting notes) and identified three opportunities for you to engage with this group over the next few months! Please read on if you are interested in lending a hand in one of these ways: 1. Help draft a Call for Proposals along with criteria or a rubric for an openly available, peer-reviewed collection of pedagogical examples, lessons, or tutorials that demonstrate a variety of music encoding use-cases. Additional roles/tasks will be required as we move along with this project! 2. Send us links (or content) to your existing tutorials, workshop materials, videos, etc. that we can add to a “Community-Created Resource” section on the MEI website which will feature instructional content that is not peer-reviewed by the MEI community. This will be on a rolling deadline once we receive initial content. 3. Help draft a conference proposal for a session focused on music encoding and pedagogy for the American Musicological Society 2021. Perhaps you are working on a project or have been teaching music encoding and would like to present on your work or approaches? (N.B. If you presented in any format at AMS 2020, you must skip a year.) Deadline for letting us know how you’d like to participate in these opportunities is January 15, 2021. If you are interested, please send an email to Anna Kijas (anna.kijas at tufts.edu) and Joy Calico (joy.calico at vanderbilt.edu). We plan to hold regular monthly meetings on the third Friday of each month at 11 AM (EST). Meetings will be announced on the MEI and IG lists, and on Slack. The upcoming dates include: * January 15, 2021 * February 19, 2021 * March 19, 2021 * April 16, 2021 * May (TBA during the MEC conference) Best, Anna Kijas and Joy Calico, Administrative Co-Chairs Please note: Lilly Music Library hours and additional details can be viewed at https://tischlibrary.tufts.edu/use-library/lilly-music-library.

I hope you don't mind if I translate your request for all those whose German is a little rusty :) --- New to the MEI community, Simon is working on representation of old dance music manuscripts in computer-processable symbolic notation. So far he has used abc notation and now wants to start looking into the MEI format to describe notational features more comprehensively. He got stuck trying to set up the MEISE editor and is now looking for some small sample files that he could open with MEISE. He is also looking for easy-to-understand instructions and information on how to do MEI, so to speak. --- @Simon: Since your questions concern many aspects, I'll just start with some hints, leaving room for others to jump in. There is a collection of MEI sample files available online: [1] (you will probably have a look into the MEI 4 examples there). Others can tell you more about the current status of MEISE, but one easy way to have a look at the rendering of those files directly in your browser will be with Verovio, a "fast, portable and lightweight open-source library for engraving Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) music scores into SVG" [2]. Therefore, you could use - the Verovio MEI viewer [3] (read-only; use the button on the right top to open a menu where you can select a given sample file or one from your disk) or - the Verovio Editor [4] (editable; again you can use file import via menu or just paste the code of your sample file into the editor; you can then start to change the code interactively and see how it affects the rendering) Finally, there is also an ABC import option with Verovio [5]. For a light-weight introduction, I recommend to have a look at the interactive MEI tutorials [6]. They are far from covering all possible topics, but should provide some first step experience (suggested order: Quickstart, Chords, Rests, and if you are hungry for some more advanced fun, the March tutorial). Further down the road, there is a great full-length tutorial by Anna Kijas and Raffale Viglianti here: [7] Ultimately, however, to become fully familiar with MEI, I am afraid there is probably no way of avoiding looking into the MEI Guidelines [8], i.e. the official documentation of the MEI standard, where you will find a lot of information and examples for different kinds of encoding questions. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any further questions.

Dezember 2020 14:49:53 An: mei-l at lists.uni-paderborn.de Betreff: [MEI-L] Ich bin neu hier und will mich ueber MEI informieren Hallo, schon seit laengerem beschaeftige ich mich mit der Repraesentation von Musik alter Tanzmusik-Handschriften in computerverarbeitbarer symbolischer Notation. Bis jetzt habe ich dafuer abc-Notation verwendet. Das ist gut geeignet die Musik selbst abzubilden, und in gewissem Umfang auch Metadaten zur Quelle abzuspeichern, ist jedoch nicht dafuer gemacht das Notenbild exakt zu beschreiben (auch wenn das einigermassen moeglich ist, das abc-Notation deskriptives Notieren erlaubt). Soweit ich das verstanden habe ist MEI dafuer konzipiert auch das zu leisten. Daher moechte ich lernen MEI zu verstehen um entscheiden zu koennen was fuer meine Arbeit bringt. Ich habe mir das Programm MEISE heruntergeladen, aber stehe damit zur Zeit vollkommen an. Was ich im Moment suche, waeren also erst einmal Beispiele, etwa eine mit MEI angefertigte kleine Datei die ich mit MEISE oeffnen kann. Und natuerlich Hinweise auf grundsaetzliche Informationen, aber wenn es geht keine Manuals sondern etwas in verstaendlicher Sprache, das mir zum Beispiel zeigt wie das unten angehaengte abc-Notat in MEI aussehen wuerde.

The various vaccines, among other factors, give reason to believe that the situation will improve in later months. Thus, the MEI Board, the Organizing Committee and Program Committee of the Music Encoding Conference 2021 in Alicante have decided to postpone the event by two months. The conference is now scheduled to take place from Monday 19 to Thursday 22 July 2021 and is additionally being prepared to be held in hybrid mode to allow either physical or virtual participation. While all but panels or workshop submissions are still expected to be full-paper submissions, please note that submission deadlines have also been shifted to a new schedule and now the deadline for registration and upload of papers is 8 March 2021. For further details please refer to the updated Call for Proposals: https://music-encoding.org/conference/2021/call/ We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this decision may cause to your schedules and planning, but we hope it is for the good and protection of everyone's health and of the Music Encoding Community. In case of questions, feel free to contact: conference2021 at music-encoding.org.
