For more than thirty years, the Nordic Society for Metrical Studies (NORDMETRIK) has arranged conferences across Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, and Iceland, at fourteen different venues so far. The last installment of the NORDMETRIK conference series – Metrics and versification in poetry and song – was co-organized by Stockholm University and the Swedish Academy with Professor Tomas Riad as the prime mover. For three days in mid-September, seventy scholars from five continents, from a wide range of disciplines, gathered in Stockholm to elucidate the complexities of metrics and versification. The Call for Papers took as its starting point that “metrics and versification constitute a natural meeting point for several disciplines including linguistics, literary studies, musicology, cognitive poetics, philology, linguistic anthropology, folklore, aesthetics, and more”. As the conference unfolded it confirmed the premise of the Call. Metrics is certainly a field of study shared by scholars with quite diverse affiliations. Obviously, such an interdisciplinary meeting point also bears some evidence of being an epistemic battlefield, but in the very battle we also find the true value of interdisciplinary gatherings: scientific notions that stand testing from peers outside one’s own field of expertise are more solid and reliable than notions never questioned from outsiders. It is not an easy task, however, to organize a conference with such diverse approaches as were the case in Stockholm, but Metrics and versification in poetry and song was sensibly focused on the language/music interface. In the paper sessions the problem of text-setting, i. e. the alignment of text to music, was addressed by a number of excellent researchers, such as Kristin Hanson (Händel), Rosalía Rodríguez-Vázquez (Galician folk songs), Teresa Proto and Farida van Eer (Dutch rap), Jacqueline Pattison Ekgren (Norwegian stev), Heini Arjava (Finnish songs), Timothée Premat (medieval French song poetry), and
