Although the symphony orchestra has not seen much physical dramatic\u0000changes since perhaps the late 1800’s, current events worldwide such as the outbreak of the\u0000Covid-19 pandemic, the economic uncertainty as well as technological advancements has seen\u0000the operations of many symphony orchestras hitting the pause button, many unsure if the\u0000orchestra might resume their operations. Symphony orchestras worldwide are forced to come out\u0000with various ideas to re-invent and re-shape itself.\u0000This paper aims to examine the possibilities of how a symphony orchestra, an institution that is\u0000heavily dependent on audiences filling up their concerts is re-inventing itself in order to sustain\u0000their very existence. Ongoing efforts such as digitalising ‘live’ concerts through digital platforms\u0000and other arising issues such as choice of technological equipment, cost and revenue as well as\u0000the perception of orchestral musicians and audiences of such re-invention and re-shaping of the\u0000symphony orchestra will be discussed. The findings from this paper may be used to further\u0000develop the ideas of re-invention and re-shaping symphony orchestras based on the demands\u0000and needs of each individual orchestra.\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":167203,"journal":{"name":"Wie wir leben wollen.

The dambus art in its ensemble consisted of a tawak-tawak, a larger main drum, anak\u0000drum that was smaller in size, a tambourine and a gong. The dambus has a unique feature. It is\u0000the instrument head shape that resembles a deer head which contrasts with Malay beliefs namely\u0000with the teachings of Islam.

Often overharvested and inefficiently used, African Blackwood has\u0000been on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s “near threatened” red list since 1998\u0000and is categorized by CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild\u0000Fauna and Flora) in Appendix II, which restricts and controls trade. As instrument\u0000manufacturers, makers, and musicians continue to purchase the wood, there is little recognition\u0000of the sustainability issues around the tree. Furthermore, many communities that harvest the\u0000wood are unaware of the musical nature of the product.\u0000The purpose of this presentation is to introduce an interdisciplinary approach to conservation of\u0000and education about African Blackwood. Since 2010, Daraja Music Initiative (DMI), a 501(c)3 nonprofit\u0000and a Tanzanian NGO, has provided music and conservation education in the Kilimanjaro\u0000Region of Tanzania, where mpingo is the national tree. By bridging seemingly divergent\u0000disciplines, DMI has raised awareness of sustainability issues both in Tanzania and\u0000internationally through the global clarinet community.
