Dear Bill,
The next iteration of
Puentes Caribeños (Caribbean Bridges), in collaboration with the
University of Trinidad and Tobago, will be an online symposium that will
focus on music-making and creativity in the Caribbean during the
pandemic. The symposium will provide an opportunity for the
strengthening of bonds between composers, performers, artists and
scholars throughout the region and its diaspora. The symposium invites
two categories of submissions: 1. short academic papers and 2. video
recordings of compositions.
