The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries were a critical period for
migration, seeing an acceleration that peaked at the turn of the twentieth

colonists or settlers driven by population growth, economic changes,
political instability, war, and freedom of religion to those first and
foremost fleeing persecution. Among the migrants were musicians, scholars,
ethnographers, writers, and intellectuals who brought with them knowledge
about music. This conference seeks to map a specific subject within this
distinct time period: how music functions as a vehicle to carry and develop

We warmly invite scholars, researchers, and experts to contribute studies
that unravel the intricate connections between music and boys love media.
Expanding on themes such as the narrative functions of music, portrayals of
musical performances, the symbolic and metaphorical dimensions of music,
and the affective and expressive currents in auditory, sonic, and queer
contexts, this collection aspires to establish a robust foundation for
exploring musicology within the diverse manifestations of boys love media
across the expansive Asian landscape and beyond.
