Submissions

The AMS invites proposals for the AMS Studies series that explore musical issues from any historical, theoretical, or ethnomusicological perspective. Books accepted for the AMS Studies series automatically receive an AMS publication subvention to support publishing costs.

If you are interested in being considered for the series, please submit a detailed proposal explaining the substance, structure, and disciplinary importance of the proposed work, including the content of each chapter, the current status of the study, and a projected date for completion of the manuscript. All proposals must include one or more sample chapters.

An electronic copy of the proposal and sample chapters should be sent to the current AMS Studies series editor:
