"My emoitons are a palette of colours for the director to use."
The music repertoire (both songs and scenic works) invludes many stories of violence executed on women. The singer who interprets these parts rehearses and performs violence on a daily basis. The cult of the male genius-conductor/director establish a power play where unhealthy behaviour can emerge and survive. How does this affect the audience? If the audience is a statistical representation, it will include both survivors and perpetrators of sexual violence. How does visual violence on the opera/consert stage affect them? The vibrant communication between stage and audience builds an area that differs depending on where in the processing fractions you are.
The communication between singer and audience needs to be investigated in an interdisciplinary way including artistic research in order to take all parabels into account.
