aspekteFESTIVAL für zeitgenössische Musik | Salzburg | Podiumsdiskussion mit Buchvorstellung (in German):
Sonntag, 20.3.2022, 16 Uhr, ARGE Kultur Salzburg, Studio
Since around 1980, the topic of "women in music" has been promoted through research, artistic and publishing activities. In 2016, triggered by a heated gender debate at the Darmstadt Summer Courses for New Music, it became highly topical again and shook up the scene. Since then, much more current music has been programmed by female composers and relevant ensembles are working on their casts. Rebecca Saunders is "Composer in Residence" at the AspekteFESTIVAL 2022. The highly acclaimed book “Gender und Neue Musik” (transcript) was published in 2021 for the 2018 symposium in Hamburg (directed by V. Grund & N. Noeske). These explosive topics will be discussed on the podium.
With:
Simone Heilgendorff, Moderation (Musicologist UdK Berlin, violist Kairos Quartett/Berlin)
Alexandra Karastoyanova-Hermentin (composer)
Nina Noeske (Professor of musicology, HfMT Hamburg)
Ludwig Nussbichler (composer and artistit director of the aspekteFESTIVAL)

Description:
Today, the mediation of contemporary (art) music offers a large, interdisciplinary field for activities and research, which in terms of institutions and methodology is particularly heterogeneous. It encompasses the work of cultural agents in institutions and music ensembles as well as at schools and music schools and it includes diverse concepts, pre-conditions, goals and certain courses of action.
This collection documents work and results of the programme area “ConTempOhr. Mediating Contemporary Music” in Salzburg and consists of papers on elementary music pedagogy, dance and choreography, composition und improvisation, psychology and cultural sociology and intermedia artistic work. It also contains papers referring to music mediation for leadership development in businesses, at festivals of contemporary (art) music, as part of work in music ensembles, at general schools, music schools, universities, and in instrumental pedagogy.
