Description
Identity and subjectivity in musical performancesWho is the “I†that performs?
The arts of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries have pushed us relentlessly to reconsider our notions of the self, expression, and communication: to ask ourselves, again and again, who we think we are and how we can speak meaningfully to one another.
Although in other performing arts studies, especially of theatre, the performance of selfhood and identity continues to be a matter of lively debate in both practice and theory, the question of how a sense of self is manifested through musical performance has been neglected.
The authors of Voices, Bodies, Practices are all musician-researchers: the book employs artistic research to explore how embodied performing “voices†can emerge from the interactions of individual performers and composers, musical materials, instruments, mediating technologies, and performance contexts. This publication is GPRC-labeled (Guaranteed Peer-Reviewed Content).
