Abstract

In January 2020, the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic led to the interruption of a high number of aggregation-based human activities, such as in-presence live music concerts. One temporary alternative to the problem was the organization of livestreaming music events, which allow only a limited degree of interaction; such a solution fit the needs of those performances where there is little or no need at all for participation, but music practices with a participatory nature were at a disadvantage. Another issue pertains to the overall dimension of live experience: how is the “here and now” of a live music performance shaped in an online setting? Analysing two examples of livestreaming music events that took place in 2020 in Italy and England, this article aims to invite a reflection on how “participation” can come to be understood in online music practices.

大流行时期音乐直播活动参与思考

2020年1月，Covid-19大流行的开始导致大量以聚集为基础的人类活动中断，例如现场音乐会。这个问题的一个临时替代方案是组织直播音乐活动，这只允许有限程度的互动;这种解决方案适合那些几乎不需要参与或根本不需要参与的表演，但具有参与性的音乐实践处于不利地位。另一个问题与现场体验的整体维度有关:现场音乐表演的“此时此地”是如何在在线环境中形成的?本文分析了2020年在意大利和英国发生的两个直播音乐活动的例子，旨在引发人们对如何在在线音乐实践中理解“参与”的思考。

期刊介绍： Journal of World Popular Music is a peer-reviewed academic journal that publishes research and scholarship on recent issues and debates surrounding international popular musics, also known as World Music, Global Pop, World Beat or, more recently, World Music 2.0. The journal provides a forum to explore the manifestations and impacts of post-globalizing trends, processes, and dynamics surrounding these musics today. It adopts an open-minded perspective, including in its scope any local popularized musics of the world, commercially available music of non-Western origin, musics of ethnic minorities, and contemporary fusions or collaborations with local ‘traditional’ or ‘roots’ musics with Western pop and rock musics. Placing specific emphasis on contemporary, interdisciplinary, and international perspectives, the journal’s special features include empirical research and scholarship into the global creative and music industries, the participants of World Music, the musics themselves and their representations in all media forms today, among other relevant themes and issues; alongside explorations of recent ideas and perspectives from popular music, ethnomusicology, anthropology, musicology, communication, media and cultural studies, sociology, geography, art and museum studies, and other fields with a scholarly focus on World Music. The journal also features special, guest-edited issues that bring together contributions under a unifying theme or geographical area.
