How do biases affect which music is deemed valuable?
In what ways are musicians influenced by dogmas and standards in the music industry?
And how do they revolt against those norms?
The discussion “What do we do with other music?” features musicians who produce music outside of typical industry conventions. The Cuban ensemble interactivo de Habana, the Austrian rapper Ezra Özmen as well as Katharina Ruf & Tomás Floris Guadix talk about power dynamics in music, the value of diversity and the benefits of not fitting into categories. With and by Shanti Suki Osman, Lea Jakob and Julia Auer.
A talk from the Critique of Power in the Arts conference that took place on April 27th at the Campus of the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna.
