Vakinhoudelijk

Only open to students enrolled in the MA programme Applied Musicology.

The course Staging Music: Programs, Productions, Policies & Pecunia forms part of the practical training track within the Applied Musicology program and studies various aspects surrounding the production of concerts, CD's, radio programs, streaming services, and the like. Solidly grounded in recent musicological debates on issues of programming and producing music, the course addresses the fundamentals of staging music from a historical, as well as from a practical perspective. In collaboration with experts active in the field, exemplary productions will be analysed from original program idea, production process, financial and legal challenges, to the final program and financial coda, and reception. Students stage productions of their own (fictitious or real, depending on the content). This includes meticulous artistic considerations, budgeting details, handling grant applications, writing program notes, press bulletins etc. External experts will criticize and co-grade the final result.

This class caters to future decision makers in the music business by means of practical training grounded in musicological background knowledge. The course resonates with the adjacent Music, Media and the Infrastructure courses in which the international music world is profiled and contextualized.
