Reimagining musical participation for art music audiences

WORKSHOP | How do you get 10,000 people to play art music on the kazoo? Join us for a hands-on workshop that takes a deep dive into audience participation.

How do you get 10,000 people to play art music on the kazoo? This is a hands-on, interactive workshop designed to showcase new modes of audience participation and community engagement based on leanings from research at Monash University and a keystone project, “10,000 Kazoos.” The session will be a fun 45-minute workshop that looks at techniques and strategies to engage new audiences, and turn music listeners into active contributors in the concert experience. It will explore deeper audience engagement in live and virtual settings, and explore what innovative modes of audience participation are most effective for classical music.
