Doctors in Performance Festival Conference
The University of the Arts Helsinki Sibelius Academy invites music performers and researchers to take part in Doctors in Performance, the sixth festival conference of music performance and artistic research.
The Doctors in Performance Festival Conference (DIP) was established in 2014 at the University of the Arts Helsinki. Since then, it has been organized by the following institutions: The Royal Irish Academy of Music (2016, Dublin), The Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre (Vilnius 2018), The Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre (Tallinn, 2021) and The Royal Academy of Music (London, 2023).
The core idea of DIP is to promote performance and research, especially artistic research, by giving performers, composers and researchers the opportunity to present their research projects. DIP places the emphasis on performance itself and we particularly encourage recital and lecture recital submissions, although paper presentations on relevant fields of artistic research are also warmly welcome.
DIP 2025 will take place in Helsinki, at the Helsinki Music Centre between 3–5 September, 2025. The conference language is English and all presentations should be in English.
DIP2025 is organized by University of Arts Helsinki Sibelius Academy doctoral schools DocMus (Department of Classical Music) and MuTri (Department of Music Education, Jazz and Folk Music), Research Institute and the Open Campus, Uniarts Helsinki.
Keynote speakers
The keynote speakers of the festival conference are Professor of Folk Music Kristiina Ilmonen (University of the Arts Helsinki, Sibelius Academy) and Dr. Inja Stanović (University of Surrey, Department of Music and Media).

Call for papers will be opened in January 2025.
