IASPM D-A-CH hosts a biennial three-days-conference (every even year) that takes place rotating through Germany, Austria and Switzerland. This conference is the main academic event of IASPM D-A-CH and brings together many members of IASPM D-A-CH and international colleagues to discuss current and topical research. The conferences, with a specific topic, are open to all scholars interested in Popular Music Research.
The last IASPM D-A-CH conference took place from 7-9 of November 2024 at the University of Zurich, Switzerland and was organized by Andreas Schoenrock (MAS Popular Music, Hochschule der Künste Bern), Britta Sweers (Institut für Musikwissenschaft, Universität Bern), Inga Mai Groote (Musikwissenschaftliches Institut, Universität Zürich), and Moritz Ege (Institut für Sozialanthropologie und Empirische Kulturwissenschaft, Universität Zürich). Thanks again for the invitation to Zurich!
