In Western concert music, performance has been closely linked to interpretation based on the idea of authenticity in relation to a given musical text. Technology remains mostly confined to the context of musical composition, while the performance of non-contemporary works perpetuates conventional historical languages, often outdated with respect to the use of innovative resources for understanding the past.
The initiative TransVariations - Music beyond the limits of time and technology funded by the EEA Grants Bilateral Relations Fund and starting April 12-14 in Trondheim (Norway), proposes a paradigm shift in the artistic approach, advocating an updating of ideas and resources according to the reconfiguration of the past.
The main goal of the initiative is to study the relationship between interpretation and artistic creation in the context of Western concert music through the development and use of innovative technological resources. The specific objectives are:
-
To promote the (re)creation of past artistic works and the production of new artistic outputs through the use of contemporary languages based on experimentation with technological interfaces;
-
To provide the testing and enhancement of new technologies associated with artistic creation;
-
To remake the idea of expressivity in music through the interaction between human actions and instrument feedback;
-
To disseminate new resources, technological tools, and practical strategies related to artistic interpretation and creation in music.
