Colloque « Narrative and Music », Vrije Universiteit Brussel, 15-17 novembre 2021. 

« The cognitivist turn sparked a renewed interest in narrative analysis that extends beyond the study of literature. It has expanded across media such as film, graphic novels, video games, and music. This conference focuses on the study of narrative and narrativity in music. While some critics are convinced of music’s capacity for story-building, others consider the use of narrative theory derived from literary studies for the analysis of music unsuitable. This conference takes music’s narrative potential as its point of departure but recognizes that musical narrativity is scalar. With ‘narrativity of music’ as an umbrella term, the conference has three subthemes : The narrative capacity of music, Narrativity of minimalist music, and The narrativity of music in intermedial works. »
