An Interdisciplinary and Integrated Methodological Framework to Analyze Aesthetic Experience in Music Performances
Objective: Investigations of aesthetic experience have continually searched for field-research methodologies that measure physiological and self-report responses reliably and with little invasiveness. On this background, the interdisciplinary research project “ECR–Experimental Concert Research” set out to study aesthetic experience in live public concerts. Methods: A team of scientists from musicology, psychology, cultural studies, and software e…
Streaming classical concerts
The COVID-19 pandemic has given a boost to the audiovisual streaming of classical concerts – a cultural practice long entrenched in the analog. While opportunities and problems for the convergence of classical concert culture and the digital sphere are already discussed in research and practice, the debate about the future of this trend lacks a unified starting point. Addressing this, the present article examines classical music performance pract…
From structural listening to daydreaming
Listening modes are often ignored in music perception research, especially when it comes to the supposedly attentive listening situation of a classical concert. The audience members’ various ways of listening, understood as the directedness of activity toward different dimensions of sound, is hypothesized to play a key role in the experience of live music. We assessed listening activity of participants ( N = 786) attending a series of experimenta…
The influence of formats and preferences on the aesthetic experience of classical music concert streams
Music is listened to in many different situational and media frames that can be expected to shape its experience. In this study, we were interested in the effects that different formats of audiovisual streaming of classical concerts can have on the aesthetic experience of their audience. We also investigated the effects of preferences for streaming features. A total of N =525 participants watched one of four chamber music concert streams and repo…
Classical Concert Visitor Types
The motivation to attend cultural events is an insightful aspect with which to study audiences. To understand their motivations and experiences is key for audience development. However, classical concert visitors have rarely been studied in this regard. Moreover, the relationship between motivation and experience has not been studied at all. To shed light on this topic, 802 concertgoers of a concert series were surveyed before and after the conce…
Affordances and Experiential Dimensions of Digital Concerts
Live-streamed and recorded concerts have increased the possibilities for attending live performances. In this study, our goal was to gain a deeper understanding of the qualities of the aesthetic experience in digital concerts of Western classical music. We thematically analyzed the free-form comments left by 341 participants of an online experiment after they viewed a digital concert. With an inductive approach, we developed a thematic framework …
Developing Digital Classical Concert Stream Offerings – A Typology of Audience Preferences
To explore the issues around the production and design of digital concert streams, we conducted an online survey of n = 1,619 classical concert stream audience members (56,5% females, mean age 49 years). Participants were asked about their preference of various characteristics of digital concert productions, their use of and experience with various stream platforms and their socio-demographics. Considering various media user typologies previously…
Listening Modes in Concerts
While the use of music in everyday life is much studied, the ways of listening to music during live performances have hardly been considered. To fill this gap and provide a starting point for further research, this article accomplishes two goals: First, it presents a literature review of the field of listening modes, encompassing seven categories of modes of listening to music. The categories identified in the literature are: diffuse listening, b…
