  • Why Do People (Not) Cough in Concerts? the Economics of Concert Etiquette
    ACEI working paper series WHY DO PEOPLE (NOT) COUGH IN CONCERTS? THE ECONOMICS OF CONCERT ETIQUETTE Andreas Wagener AWP-05-2012 Date: December 2012 Why Do People (Not) Cough in Concerts? The Economics of Concert Etiquette Andreas Wagener University of Hannover School of Economics and Management Koenigsworther Platz 1 30167 Hannover, Germany [email protected] Abstract: Concert etiquette demands that audiences of classical concerts avoid inept noises such as coughs. Yet, coughing in concerts occurs more frequently than elsewhere, implying a widespread and intentional breach of concert etiquette. Using the toolbox of (behavioral) economics, we study the social costs and benefits of concert etiquette and the motives and implications of individually disobeying such social norms. Both etiquette and its breach arise from the fact that music and its “proper” perception form parts of individual and group identities, convey prestige and status, allow for demarcation and inclusion, produce conformity, and affirm individual and social values. Keywords: Concert etiquette, social norms, music. JEL classification: Z11, Z13, D02. „Aber, aber, Wozzeck, er hätte doch nicht husten sollen!“ [But really, Wozzeck, you should not have coughed!] Alban Berg (1925), Wozzeck, Act 1, Scene 4. 1. Introduction A concert of Western classical music is peculiar in several respects (Small 1997, 1998): the musical pieces performed are intangible and emotionally loaded; they form part of individual and social identities and are held to have value and meaning over and above the individual performance. Jointness in the experience of music embeds audiences and musicians into communicative and strategic interaction. Audiences do systematically not represent cross-sections of society but come from certain identifiable subgroups.
