The Society for Music Theory

The Society for Music Theory (SMT) is a professional organization dedicated to the study and analysis of music. It brings together musicians, scholars, and educators to share research, ideas, and insights about how music works, including its structure, history, and cultural contexts. Members attend conferences, publish journals, and participate in discussions that deepen understanding of musical composition, performance, and analysis. SMT aims to advance music theory as an academic discipline, fostering collaboration and innovation among those interested in exploring the language and meaning of music.
