5. 3. SHUT UP 'N' PLAY! Negotiating the Musical Work

   Author : Stefan Östersjö; Musikhögskolan i Malmö; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Contemporary art music; Collaboration; Musical performance; Methodology; Artistic research; Ontology; Music philosophy; Musical work; Musical interpretation; Performance practice;

   Abstract : 'SHUT UP ’N’ PLAY! Negotiating the Musical Work’ is a piece of artistic research that attempts to merge artistic practice, qualitative research methods and critical analysis in a project concerned with contemporary performance practices, and specifically how these practices are created and transmitted in the interaction between composer and performer.
