They have begun to depart from the standard concert format, rituals, and mode of presentation, inherited from the later nineteenth century, and re-think how concerts are programmed and presented, how musicians perform, where performance can occur, and the role of the audience in the co-creation of the live event. Orchestras exploring these performance possibilities often collaborate with artists from other disciplines, including theatre, dance, film, and visual art, in the creation of generically hybrid work&nbsp;that challenges conventional understanding of the orchestra, of musicians&#8217; skills and capabilities, of borders between art forms, and of orchestral repertoire.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/orchestraltheatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2023\/01\/0C8A8232ed-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23\" width=\"802\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/orchestraltheatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2023\/01\/0C8A8232ed-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/orchestraltheatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2023\/01\/0C8A8232ed-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/orchestraltheatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2023\/01\/0C8A8232ed-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/orchestraltheatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2023\/01\/0C8A8232ed-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/orchestraltheatre\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2023\/01\/0C8A8232ed.jpg 1713w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 802px) 100vw, 802px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Southbank Sinfonia, <em>Atmospheres<\/em> (photo: Matt Belcher)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p> On this blog I will share updates about my research and public engagement activities, including a series of conversations I am having with people involved in creating this work.
