Sounds of the Pandemic
Sounds of the Pandemic offers one of the first critical analyses of the changes in sonic environments, artistic practice, and listening behaviour caused by the Coronavirus outbreak. This multifaceted collection provides a detailed picture of a wide array of phenomena related to sound and music, including soundscapes, music production, music performance, and mediatisation processes in the context of COVID-19. It represents a first step to understanding how the pandemic and its by-products affected sound domains in terms of experiences and practices, representations, collective imaginaries, and socio-political manipulations. This book is essential reading for students, researchers, and practitioners working in the realms of music production and performance, musicology and ethnomusicology, sound studies, and media and cultural studies.
Classical Music Futures
This volume brings together contributions from a wide range of international academics and practitioners. It traces innovations within classical music practice, showing how these offer divergent visions for its future. The interdisciplinary contributions to the volume highlight the way contrasting ideas of the future can effect change in the present. A rich balance of theoretical and practical discussion brings authority to this collection, which lays the foundations for timely responses to challenges ranging from the concept of the musical work, and the colonial values within Western musical culture, to unsustainable models of orchestral touring. The authors highlight how labour to meet the demands of particular futures for classical music might impact its creation and consumption, presenting case studies to capture the mediating roles of technology and community engagement. This book will be of interest to scholars and students in the fields of musicology and the sociology of music, as well as a general audience of practitioners, freelance musicians, music administrators and educators.
Stillstand
Unsere Welt ist durch Tempo, Fortschrittsstreben und ein »Immer-Weiter« geprägt. Stillstand, von dem es heißt, er sei Rückschritt, passt hier auf den ersten Blick so gar nicht hinein: Geht es doch nicht nur um die bewusste Verlangsamung einer Dynamik, sondern um deren Unterbrechung. Insbesondere ein »verordneter« Stillstand infolge der Corona-Pandemie hat ein bislang unbeachtetes Thema in den Vordergrund gerückt. Doch schauen wir uns aufmerksam um: Stillstand – teils erwünscht, teils unerwünscht oder gar unvermeidlich – geschieht durchaus häufiger, als wir es wahrnehmen. DIAGONAL 2021 spürt dem Stillstand in Kunst und Kultur, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft, Erziehung und Bildung...

Music Has Power® in Senior Wellness and Healthcare
The transformative role music therapy can play in all areas of healthcare, and especially in the care of older adults is increasingly apparent. However, while music activities are present in most care settings, these activities don't provide the therapeutic benefits that are possible with music therapy-informed interventions and programs. Best practices from music therapy are transforming dementia care, and have the potential to improve healthcare-and health-for older people, whatever their needs, wherever they receive care. Dr. Concetta Tomaino, a pioneer in the field of music therapy,. shares more than 40 years of clinical and research experience--not just with Music Therapists but also with healthcare leaders, clinicians, and direct care staff. With chapters on mental health and wellness, dementia, as well as movement and speech rehabilitation, this comprehensive and friendly practice guide will help all caregivers use music therapy best practices to provide better, more fulfilling support across all senior healthcare settings.
