In 1990, three major books by Albert Bregman, Carol Lynne Krumhansl and Eugene Narmour were published that were to become transformative pillars in the field of music cognition research and beyond.

In anticipation of the 25th anniversary of these influential tomes, a two-day symposium will be held at the Schulich School of Music, McGill University in Montreal July 7-8, 2014.

Early registration rates  (up to April 30, 2014) are $100 regular, $50 for registered students, and free for students whose posters are accepted. Late registration is $150 regular and $100 for students.

A special issue of Music Perception to honor these three books will be organized by guest editors David Temperley, Alexander Rozin and Stephen McAdams, targeting the June 2015 issue. See the website for details: http://www.music.mcgill.ca/bkn25/submission.php.

We hope the music cognition community will join us in celebrating our colleagues both at the symposium and through their submissions to the special issue.
