Some of you may be interested in knowing about this conference on
musical iconography. Surely some kind of handbook will come out
of this.

Subject: [MLA-L] Workshop on cataloguing and indexing visual
sources for music history
The Research Center for Music Iconography, at the City University
of New York, The Graduate Center
and the Répertoire International d'Iconographie Musicale (RIdIM)
are announcing a workshop
Methodology for Cataloguing and Indexing Visual Sources for Music
History
moderated by Florence Gétreau (Paris), with a participation of
Cristina Bordas (Madrid), Sean Ferguson (Columbus, Ohio), Olga
Jesurum (Parma) and Nicole Lallement (Paris). The workshop will
focus on the methodology and tools for cataloguing music-related
visual sources in RIdIM's new database available over the
Internet. The demonstration will be based on cataloguing of
different visual genres, such as composers' portraits, costumes
(drawing and engraving), scenographies, and specific performances
including theater and non-Western performances. The workshop will
also include a demonstration of the database for cataloguing the
iconography of Rameau, prepared in conjunction with the
publication of his Opera omnia and integrated in the Euterpe
database in Paris; the database of the Istituto Nazionale di
Studi Verdiani in Parma which includes over 10,000 images of set
designs and costumes; and the database of the Grupo de
Investigación UCM in Madrid, used for cataloguing images at the
Museo del Prado.
