Welcome to Miami, Florida!
I am excited to welcome you to the 66th National Conference of the College Music Society at the Miami Marriott Dadeland in Miami, Florida, October 26–28, 2023, held in collaboration with the 2023 National Conference of the Association for Technology in Music Instruction (ATMI).
Miami is known as "The Sunshine City" because of its excellent weather. The Metrorail can conveniently take you to the University of Miami, The Kampong, The National Tropical Botanical Garden, the Vizcaya Museum & Gardens, and the Miami downtown; all of which will allow you to experience the cultural diversity of the city.
This 2023 CMS National Conference will be exciting, invigorating, and engaging. Many highly creative submissions were selected based on the theme "The World Becomes What We Teach: Innovative, Inclusive, Empathetic, and Joyful." Our commitment to leading change is revolutionizing conversations across music in higher education about how we might better prepare musicians for the challenges and opportunities faced when living, learning, teaching, and performing music amidst a rapidly evolving globalized society.
This year's program features three showcase concerts, and the first showcase concert will be performed at the University of Miami Frost School of Music. We have over two-hundred performances, research presentations, panels, workshops, demonstrations, and e-posters on various topics and genres. I am excited and looking forward to attending as many sessions as possible to listen and learn about the many different approaches to music to be presented.
New to the program this year are:
The conference will also feature four inspiring and thought-provoking plenary sessions:
I look forward to seeing you at the joint CMS-ATMI conference in Miami. This is one of the very few annual conferences that brings all segments of music programs in higher education together to have meaningful conversations for the future of our music. Have an enjoyable and productive conference, and take home what you learned in Miami and share with your home institutions!
Best Wishes,
Mihoko Watanabe
