Invitation to subscribe to and participate in a newly-established email list entitled the Historical Research in Music Education Forum

This email list is sponsored by the History Standing Committee of the International Society for Music Education (ISME). The objectives of the forum are firstly to promote historical research in music education among postgraduate research students and secondly to provide a medium for researchers in the field of music education history – both established and beginning researchers – to share information about topics of mutual interest including online resources such as archival, textbook and journal sources.  We welcome subscribers from the History SRIG (Special Research Interest Group) of NAfME  – the US-based National Association for Music Education – and all other music educators from countries world-wide who are interested in historical research in music education.

The email list will enable you to receive postings from other list members and to respond to these postings, contribute your own comments and suggestions, and promote your own historical research interests. Once subscribed, you will be able to access previous postings as well as access the email addresses of your fellow subscribers for person-to-person contact.
