Society for Music Analysis
The Society for Music Analysis is an academic society, founded in 1992 by Jonathan Dunsby, specializing in music theory and analysis. It is based in England and, although it does not produce it, is closely associated with the academic journal Music Analysis.[1] which published its first issue in 1982.
The officiel website describes SMA thus:
The Society for Music Analysis (SMA) is a UK-based international organisation dedicated to music theory and analysis. We are affiliated with the journal Music Analysis and support and organise a regular programme of events, including the annual Theory and Analysis Graduate Students (TAGS) Conference, the Music Analysis Summer School (a residential course taught by international experts), and other Music Analysis Conferences (‘MACs’) and symposia. We are members of the European Theory & Analysis of Music (EuroT&AM) Network.[2]
SMA issues various awards, such as the Pascall Medal, the Adele Katz Early Career Research Award, and so forth. It also issues a newsletter. The current president of SMA is Kenneth Smith.
