Join us for the second symposium of Professor Philip V. Bohlman’s International Balzan Prize for Ethnomusicology project (2023–28) entitled “Unsettled Passage: A US-Mexico Border Symposium of Sonic Encounter.” The symposium is a two-day event that brings together artists, scholars, and community members to engage with the many forms of sonic encounter afforded by one of the most mediatized borders in contemporary politics: the U.S.-Mexico borderlands. The event will open with a keynote presentation on February 27th at the International House Assembly Hall, followed by a musical performance by the Sones de México Ensemble at 7:30 pm.

This event is free and open to the public. For more information, visit: https://music.uchicago.edu/news/unsettled-passage-symposium
