Latest IATIS Bulletin prize winner

As part of our partnership with Routledge, IATIS is now holding regular prize draws for members who submit news items for inclusion in the IATIS Bulletin.

The draws coincide with the publication of every second Bulletin (roughly once every six weeks), with a randomly-selected contributor winning a book or eBook up to the value of £50 from the Routledge website.

The winner of our fourth prize was Brian Mossop from York University, Canada. He selected Composing for Voice: Exploring Voice, Language and Music, which elucidates how language and music function together from the perspectives of composers, singers and actors, providing an understanding of the complex functions of the voice pedagogically, musicologically and dramatically.

As Brian explained: "I’ve become very interested lately in the relationship between language and music, both theoretically and practically (I’m an amateur choral singer). In particular, what happens when composers set words to music? To what extent do they ‘translate’ the intonational and rhythmic properties of the wordings into musical features?"

To be in with a chance of winning the next prize draw, send your news items to Joseph Lambert (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) or submit through the IATIS platform.
