Whilst the emergence of concepts of autonomous music wrought to create a distance from the visual dimensions of the act of listening and performing, sound, images, and spaces have always been intimately connected. By looking at theories of sound and image, and exploring a wide range of music materials – from painting to album covers, from opera to sound installation - aim of this module is to explore the relationship between the two sensory realms in performance spaces and how they influence the dimension of spectatorship, the way we associate music with sites of performance, how the bodies of the performers act, and change the act of listening, and how we understand traditions.
