Over the last few years the SMA’s membership has grown to include music teachers, gap-year students, post-PhDs and unaffiliated scholars who do not have access to back issues of the journal Music Analysis through a university. And so we are pleased to announce that members who choose to opt for a subscription to Music Analysis in their membership package will now not only receive print copies of the issues published during their membership, but will also have online access to issues back to 1999 via the Wiley Online Library – all for still only £36.50 (or £26.50 for students).
Existing members will be contacted about access arrangements once the necessary systems are in place. If you’re not a member yet, then join now!

Review I
By Helen Thomas
The SMA’s International Summer School aims to provide postgraduate participants with an advanced analytical toolkit for use in their research and teaching, and a forum for the exchange of ideas at an international level. It was launched last year in collaboration with the IMR and Wiley-Blackwell, the publishers of Music Analysis. Good news travels fast and this year 32 students from North America, Europe, the Middle-East, Asia and Australasia gathered in Durham for an intensive week of seminars and plenary sessions culminating in a symposium on ‘New Perspectives on Musical Form’. » Read more: 2 Reviews: Music Analysis Summer School 2010
