POLKA PROJECT

The ethnomusicological department of the University for Music and Drama in Hanover, Germany, is currently involved in developing a project on the histories and recent forms of polka in Europe. As we plan this to be an international project with researchers from several European countries, we are currently looking for partners, not only, but especially from Eastern Europe. If you are interested in polka and/or have worked on this topic and would like to cooperate with us in setting up a research network, we would be grateful, if you could contact us. Please include a short cv with description of your past and current fields of study and of what would interest you in researching polka. Mails should be directed to my assistant kerstin.klenke@hmt-hannover.de.
