Description
The practice-based, exploratory research project Sound Soils addresses the question of music professionals to explore rural contexts as future workfield. It aims to formulate opportunities for musicians and music organisations in rural areas in the North of the Netherlands, with specific attention to participatory music practices, as a potential stepping stone to follow-up action research.
