Contemporary music, like other arts, is dealing with the rise of
"curators" laying claim to everything from festivals to playlists -
but what are they and what do they do anyway? Drawing from
backgrounds ranging from curatorial studies to festival studies and
musicology, Brandon Farnsworth lays out a theory for understanding
curatorial practices in contemporary music, and how they could be a
solution to the field's diminishing social relevance. The volume
focuses on two case studies, the Munich Biennale for New Music
Theatre, and the Maerzmusik Festival at the Berliner Festspiele,
putting them in a transdisciplinary history of curatorial practice,
and showing what music curatorial practice can be.
