International Conference „Con il signor prencipe per il mio scolare“: Pupils, Patrons, Printers and Violin Culture in 18th-Century Europe
Call for papers

This event will investigate the teaching methods and repertoire in a century of increasing recognition and institutionalisation of violin ‚schools‘, examining how social and political climates impacted music education, the careers of violinists, and the role of patrons in fostering musical talent and facilitating the circulation of music and musicians. The mobility of violinists and the networks they created will be analyzed, as well as the role of printers in shaping the music market, balancing local traditions with the demands of an increasingly international repertoire.

Zeit und Ort: 19–21 May 2026, University of Graz, Institute for Arts and Musicology, Meerscheinschlössl (Mozartgasse 3, 8010 Graz)
