MUSIC AND RACISM

Studienniveau: Master
Lehrende*r: Marko Kölbl

Kursinhalt: This course explores various relations between music and racism. Departing from a student perspective, we address racist and Eurocentric structures in higher music education, taking a close look on the range of studies and curricula. We examine how racialized expectations on musicians affect their studies and career possibilities and review the variousscenes of the “music market” regarding their exclusionary mechanisms. Central to this course is an open definition of “music” that critically reconsiders the hegemonic position of Western classical Art music. This pluralistic understanding of music enables further references the parallelism of colonialism, racism and the oppression of musical expressions. By the end of this course, students will be able to:Reflect on their future profession as stage performers and music educators from an intersectional perspective, learning how the body, race, ethnicity, cultural biographies, class, gender and sexuality influence musical and teaching careers.Develop anti-racist and anti-discriminatory strategies within their own music education environment.Locate music and dance in relation to race and racism within broader geopolitical hegemonies
