Tällaista kattavaa musiikkikentän kartoitusta tuolta ajalta ei ole aiemmin tehty. Olennainen tutkimuskysymys on sota-ajan aiheuttamien haasteiden kartoitus. Tutkimalla sotavuosien musiikkielämän ohjelmistopolitiikkaa ja vastaanottoa haetaan vastauksia siihen, miten sota-aika on heijastunut konserteissa ja niiden ohjelmistoissa ja miten merkitykselliseksi yleisö on elävän musiikkielämän kokenut.

  • Mönster Och Möjligheter Programblad 2
    Mönster och möjligheter Genus och gestaltning i 1700-talsopera Operahögskolan/Stockholms konstnärliga högskola, 20 september 2018 Ett gästspel från Musikhögskolan vid Luleå tekniska universitet, i Piteå och Högskolan för scen och musik, Göteborgs universitet Medverkande På scen: Tove Dahlberg, alla roller Bo Wannefors, piano Idé, manus, och iscensättning: Tove Dahlberg och Kristina Hagström-Ståhl Ljusdesign: Tobias Hagström-Ståhl/Lumination of Sweden Övriga pianister: Eric Skarby, Tommy Jonsson, Rut Pergament Coach, maskulinitet: Eva Johansson * * * Hur kan genusforskning och kritiska perspektiv användas i en konstnärlig praktik? Vilka är möjligheterna att arbeta normkritiskt – och normkreativt – med opera? I det här proJektet undersöker Tove Dahlberg och Kristina Hagström-Ståhl tillsammans sångarens handlingsutrymme i den konstnärliga processen, samt relationen mellan scenisk och musikalisk gestaltning i operarepertoar. Med Mozarts opera Figaros bröllop (1786) som utgångspunkt och material har Tove och Kristina mötts i en serie laborationer, som syftat till att väcka frågor kring konventioner och ”tyst kunskap” inom opera, men även att utveckla metoder för breddade och medvetna val i den konstnärliga processen. Med sig har de haft pianister med lång erfarenhet av att arbeta med Mozarts operor. Tove tar sig an fem kvinnliga och manliga roller ur operan, med en dubbel målsättning: att utmana sina egna vokala och sceniska register och att låta operans scener och arior bli föremål för konstnärlig undersökning. Särskilt har vi tittat på hur sångliga och kroppsliga praktiker tillsammans påverkar hur maskulinitet och femininitet kan gestaltas och hur gestaltningen blir läsbar för en publik. En genomgående frågeställning har gällt relationen mellan operan som material och konstnärligt verk i egen rätt – mellan sångarens och rollens behov.

The tight-lipped lumber jack answered: – A real man cuts off any toe he likes. Judith Butler talks about gender as performance, a story of male and female that we keep telling one another until it feels like the truth (Butler 1990). Many feminists today agree that there is no behavior that is entirely feminine or masculine in its essence.
