ResumoBeginning January 2007, the journal American Music (ISSN 0734-4392) will no longer be affiliated with the Society for American Music (SAM). The journal will continue to be published by the University of Illinois Press and Michael Hicks of Brigham Young University has been named editor. No interruption in publication is anticipated. SAM and Cambridge University Press have announced their new journal, the Journal for the Society for American Music (JSAM); the first issue will appear in spring 2007. JSAM will be the official journal of the society, and all members will receive copy. It will be the only official journal of the society. According to Michael Broyles, president of SAM, [w]ith Cambridge, we look forward to new intellectual directions for the journal, greater international presence, and cutting-edge use of digital technology. JSAM will appear quarterly and cover the entire range of American music(s) and its social and cultural milieu. Ellie Hisama, who has been editor of American Music, along with all other editors and the entire editorial board, have moved to JSAM. Articles to appear in the first issues of JSAM include Christopher Reynolds on Porgy and Bess, Denise Von Glahn and Michael Broyles on re-dating the beginnings of musical modernism, Leta Miller on race and the American Federation of Musicians, Teresa Magdanz on Sobre las Olas as cultural synecdoche, Benjamin Givan on McCoy Tyner and Bessie's Blues, and Laurie Stras on music of the Boswell Sisters. (All information was provided by Mariana Whitmer [executive director, Society for American Music] in an e-mail message to Erin Mayhood, 2 October 2006.) The Newsletter of the American Bach Society, published semi-annually from 1996-2003, has changed its name to Bach Notes. The new publication, beginning with number 1 (Spring 2004), will, in addition to keeping American Bach Society (ABS) members informed of current events and research developments, include short articles. The goal is to make Bach Notes a vehicle for short scholarly works in English analogous to the kleine Beitrage of the Bach-Jahrbuch. (Reginald L. Sanders, From the Editor, Bach Notes 1 [Spring 2004]: 12). Also new to the publication is Communications column, offering the ABS membership an opportunity to react to articles and pose questions. All issues of Bach Notes are freely available online (PDF) at: http://www.americanbachsociety.org/bachnotes.html. The biannual Canadian University Music Review (ISSN 0710-0353), published by the Canadian University Music Society/Societe de musique des universities canadiennes, has changed its name to Intersections: Canadian Journal of Music/Revue canadienne de musique (ISSN 1911-0146) starting with number 25, part 1-2 (2005). The first double issue is devoted to selection of articles by Finnish and Canadian authors, most of which were first presented as papers at May 2003 conference in Turku, Finland, entitled Northern Perspectives of Music as Vehicle for Cultural Transmission. Mary Woodside, the English editor, states that the new name makes explicit our long-standing tradition of treating all subjects musical: history, theory, pedagogy, performance and interdisciplinary studies. …
