Echoes from the torn down fourth wall

The project "Echoes from the torn down fourth wall" aims to build bridges between art music and community singing. In a concert format created for the project, within the context of an abstract approach to an intense concert music making, several passages with community singing occur, where the audience sings along in songs they know. The research process has investigated a.o. how to create the musical environment that might bridge the different positions, how the idea of the listener/spectator can be negotiated within different art domains, and how from a genre perspective the project can be narrated as a meeting between confirmational and destabilizational forces.
