Francesca Fantini

This workshop by Francesca Fantini invites practitioners, composers, and critically engaged listeners to collectively reflect on the meaning and role of contemporary music today.

Through discussion and collaborative experimentation, the workshop aims to identify lines of continuity as well as points of rupture, proposing new modes of listening, composing, and performing. The session will function as a laboratory for action: participants are invited to sketch short acts, scores, or instructions that can serve as starting points for the collective jam session the following week (19.11.26).

Want to join? Please send an email to francesca.fantini.music@gmail.com specifying your main role (practitioner, listener, composer).

The workshop is in English.
