DESCRIPTION:In this session\, we will discuss the notions of rigour\, impr
 ovement\, and success in musical performance. We will think about the ways
  they are measured and determined in ensemble performance and in “privat
 e” (rehearsal) and “public” (concert) settings\, as well as in the c
 lassroom. How do performance spaces shape ensemble dynamics? Who (or what)
  has power in collective musicking\, and how is this power negotiated\, di
 stributed\, and contested? Do different models of ensemble performance (as
  a network\, as distributed agency\, as collective cognition) also offer d
 ifferent ethics of encounter and relation?\n\nThis event series aims to re
 flect on how distributed models of cognition apply to\, and change our per
 ception of\, musical engagement. Growing interest in music-making practice
 s outside the normative\, and ideally sterilised\, settings of the concert
  hall and the studio has already highlighted the extent to which ‘musick
 ing’ creates living\, distributed assemblages out of performers\, listen
 ers\, instruments\, and architectural spaces. In each session of the serie
 s\, the academics\, performers\, and practitioners interviewed will share 
 their reflections on the way the language and insights of distributed cogn
 ition engage and enrich models of aural encounter in fields such as music 
 performance\, environmental studies\, history\, religious studies\, and li
 terature.
