- Summary
- "Focuses on performance as a type of compositional technique and as a mode of practice-based research for the act of composing a work. It addresses how performance and composition are reciprocally entwined and what role this hermeneutic relationship plays in creative practice today. This publication is the work of multiple authors from academic institutions around the world; each approaches the topic '(per)forming art' from their own perspective. As such, the contents of this book will appeal to a variety of academic interests pertaining to various 'styles', traditions and cultures, all of which are unified by the relationship between performance and composition."--Provided by publisher.
