Dear all,

The 9th International Symposium on Computer Music Modeling and Retrieval (CMMR 2012) will take place at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) on 19-22 June 2012. It is jointly organised by the Centre for Digital Music (QMUL) and the CNRS - Laboratoire de Mecanique et d'Acoustique (France).

CMMR is an interdisciplinary conference involving fields such as computer science, engineering, information retrieval, human computer interaction, digital libraries, hypermedia, artificial intelligence, acoustics, audio and music signal processing, musicology, music perception and cognition, neuroscience, as well as music composition and performance.

+ Papers:

Short papers (max. 8 pages in the Springer Verlag LNCS single column format) should present and discuss a work-in-progress.

Long papers (9-16 pages in the Springer Verlag LNCS single column format) should present a substantial contribution to the field.

More information at: http://cmmr2012.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/call-for-papers

+ Demonstrations:

Demonstrations (proposal: max. 4 pages in the Springer Verlag LNCS single column format) should present innovative working systems which, if applicable, can be tested by users.

More information at: http://cmmr2012.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/call-for-demos

+ Panels:

Panels (proposal: max. 4 pages in the Springer Verlag LNCS single column format) should focus either on the theme of the conference ("Music and Emotions"), emerging musical technologies, or unsolved problems in music informatics.

+ Tutorials:

Tutorials (proposal: max. 4 pages the Springer Verlag LNCS single column format) are a great way to share some expertise and experience on a specific topic appealing to the conference audience.

+ Music:

Submissions of music from any musical style or genre are warmly welcomed in the areas specified in the call for music. Two music concerts will be collocated with CMMR 2012 at Wilton's Music Hall in London, the "world's oldest, surviving Grand Music Hall".
