Examining Performance in Action

What is this project?

The purpose of the research is to investigate contemporary performing arts practices. In particular, we are interested in examining vocalists’ individual experiences of participating in an opera production. We want to find out more information about how performers learn and develop throughout a production period (rehearsals through performance).
