Music as an invitation: liveness in digital piano performances through participating audiences

Description du projet

La participation aux concerts numériques dans un monde post-pandémique

Les concerts ont été annulés dans le cadre des mesures de confinement imposées pour contenir la propagation du virus de la COVID-19. Ainsi, cette pandémie a fait des concerts numériques une nouvelle norme. Dans ce contexte, le projet KDR - UiB, soutenu par le programme Actions Marie Skłodowska-Curie, étudiera la participation du public aux performances musicales numériques et sa sensation de connexion avec autrui. En utilisant des méthodes de recherche-action participative, il travaillera également avec des femmes et des jeunes filles pour créer en collaboration des performances de piano en ligne. Le projet se concentrera sur le public des femmes et des jeunes filles, compte tenu du manque d’opportunités pour ces groupes en termes de participation à la musique classique. KDR - UiB entend ainsi contribuer à un changement positif vers des pratiques musicales plus inclusives pour le monde post-pandémique et numérisé.

Objectif

This research investigates participation in digital musical performances as a way to enhance a sense of liveness - i.e. the feeling of being connected to other people. For the last 18 months, digital concerts have become the norm due to the restrictions on social interaction during the pandemic. Yet such digital events often challenge the relationship between performer and audience by compromising the experience of liveness. Using Participatory Action Research methods, I will work with women and girls to collaboratively create online piano performances where I am the main performer. Audience feedback and my own reflections as the performer, supported by literature review, will inform knowledge about the intensification of the relational and affective aspects of the music experience and its impact on the sense of liveness. My dual expertise as a musician (pianist) and qualitative researcher are essential here, as they allow me to undertake research both on and through the topic. By focusing research on audiences of women and girls I aim to address the specific lack of opportunities for these groups and challenge the traditional obstacles to participation in classical music. In this way the project will contribute to positive change towards more inclusive music practices for the post-pandemic and digitalised world. Research outputs will be a series of digital concerts which will be streamed via YouTube and music festivals, reflective short essays, two articles to be published in peer-reviewed journals, a technical handbook, and a book of personal reflections integrating researcher and audience perspectives. This research aims to innovate through applying ideas and methods from areas such as music performance, digital technologies, participatory arts, and gender studies. This project will enable me with skills and competencies to become an innovative and socially engaged performer and academic who is a leader in my field and an inspiration for future generations.
