IAML 2013

Jaakko Tuohiniemi schickt seinen Bericht aus Finland und hat freundlicherweise einen englischen Abstract beigefügt: (Some Personal Highlights of Vienna IAML Conference): Instead of being able to list only “the one best” of all of the wealth of the meeting, the author lists various “greatest” moments of the overheated week, viz from some excellent individual presentations to the happy-ending election in Council and from quality concerts to spirited collegial company.

This report is a real challenge for your translation program: Jürg Obrecht from Switzerland reports from the excursion "Fin de Siècle". His language is ... Schwyzerdütsch: Wi jede Midwuch i-n-ere IAML-Konferänz hei mer ou das Mou zwüsche verschidene Exkursione chönne wähle.

Frida Røsand's diary entry comes from the far north, from Norway: Det foredraget som jeg på forhånd var mest spent på, var «Orchestral sheet music replaced by tablet computers. New trends in software development». Foredragsholdere var Jonas Coomans og Bob Hamblok fra neoScores i Brussel.

This report comes from Belgium, the host country of our next IAML Conference. Marie Cornaz: Ma participation à la conférence de Vienne cette année restera sûrement un des événements marquants de ma carrière depuis mon arrivée à la direction des collections musicales de la Bibliothèque royale de Belgique en 2007.

In a city so musically rich as Vienna it’s difficult to single out one particular highlight, but for me it was the concert at the Musikverein. To hear music by the great Viennese masters played so well and on such wonderful period instruments was one thing, but to have in the same Konzertsaal the autograph manuscripts of the music we were hearing was a unique experience. Many thanks to all our Austrian colleagues for a truly great week.
