Funded Activity Summary

The 21st Century Orchestra: researching and developing sustainable models. The project will investigate and prototype innovations which reinvent the orchestra from its current 19th Century form, to one which maintains high quality but resonates with more recent changes in music consumption patterns, musical tastes, performance modes (e.g. immersive), distribution media, and the revolution in instrument design. A musical, technological, social and audience analysis of orchestral history will inform an action research inquiry into possible future success paths. Resulting innovations in music repertoire, product and events will produce new revenue models for orchestras around an expanded market base and export of IP. Orchestral sustainability will also strengthen Australia's cultural fabric.
