Cultural Heritage and Improvised Music in European Festivals (CHIME)

CHIME是一个跨国研究项目，旨在探索音乐、节日和文化遗产之间不断变化的关系如何重新协商对遗产的既定理解和利用。这个创新的项目由经验丰富的跨国研究人员组成的跨学科团队领导，通过爵士乐和即兴音乐节的镜头探索不同类型遗产的使用和再利用。我们将把雄心勃勃的研究项目与强有力的、目标明确的合作伙伴关系结合起来，以促进不同兴趣群体对文化遗产的理解。我们对节日的核心关注反映了节日在欧洲文化生态中所占据的重要地位，以及它们与空间和文化场所的动态和协同关系。我们将使用爵士乐和即兴音乐作为一个镜头，通过它来探索遗产研究中的关键问题，借鉴音乐的独特和复杂的关系，高雅和低俗文化，传统，创新，真实性和（非）欧洲身份的概念。CHIME将传统的学术成果与知识交流活动相结合，并将与10个合作伙伴在28个月的时间里合作，开发一系列研究和开发工具，为音乐节、爵士和即兴音乐界、政策制定者和更广泛的文化创意产业带来好处。我们的合作伙伴包括节日和音乐推广机构、博物馆和档案馆、文化政策制定者以及国家和国际网络组织。CHIME专注于三个主题工作包（WPs）：即兴遗产：爵士，节日和遗址；营销遗产：城市空间中的爵士乐和声音遗产：荷兰的爵士音乐节景观。每个工作包将制定一个活动方案，为以下研究问题提供支持：？爵士音乐如何促进与传统的联系，并重新配置人们与地方的关系？爵士乐和即兴音乐节在哪些方面为参与文化遗产提供了新的模式？音乐如何通过对遗产的使用和再利用来塑造和传达对文化记忆的理解？当节日和遗产互动时，产生了什么协同作用和摩擦（从对过去的积极想象到对未来的设想，从保护和使用之间的问题的谈判，到旅游和当地利益之间的摩擦等）？爵士乐和即兴音乐节在哪些方面可以作为审视文化认同概念的镜头？音乐节是如何模糊有形、无形和数字遗产之间的界限的？

CHIME is a transnational research project that explores how changing relationships between music, festivals and cultural heritage sites renegotiate established understandings and uses of heritage. Led by a highly experienced cross-disciplinary team of transnational researchers, this innovative project explores the uses and re-uses of different types of heritage through the lens of jazz and improvised music festivals. We will combine an ambitious research programme with strong, carefully targeted collaborative partnerships in order to advance understandings of cultural heritage among different communities of interest. Our core focus on festivals reflects the important - if undervalued - position that festivals occupy in Europe's cultural ecology, with their dynamic and synergetic relationship to spaces and cultural sites. We will use jazz and improvised music as a lens through which to explore key issues in heritage research, drawing on the music's unique and complex relationship to concepts of high and low culture, tradition, innovation, authenticity and (non)-European identity. CHIME integrates traditional scholarly outputs with Knowledge Exchange (KE) activities, and we will work collaboratively with 10 Associated Partners (APs) over a 28-month period to develop a series of Research and Development tools that will be of benefit to festivals, the jazz and improvised music sectors, policy makers and the broader cultural and creative industries. Our Associated Partners are festivals and music promoters, museums and archives, cultural policy makers and national and international networking organisations.CHIME focuses on three thematic work packages (WPs): Improvising Heritage: jazz,festivals and heritage sites; Marketising Heritage: jazz in urban spaces; and Sounding Heritage:jazz festival landscapes in the Netherlands. Each work package will develop a programme ofactivities that feeds into the following research questions:?How does jazz music facilitate a connection to heritage and enable a reconfiguring of people'srelationship to place??In what ways do jazz and improvised music festivals provide new models for engagement withcultural heritage??How does music shape and inform understandings of cultural memory through uses and re-usesof heritage??What synergies and frictions are created when festivals and heritage sites interact (from positivere-imaginings of the past to envisaging alternative futures, from the negotiation of problems between conservation and use, to frictions between tourism and local interests etc.)??In what ways can jazz and improvised music festivals act as lens to interrogate concepts ofcultural identity??How do music festivals blur the boundaries between tangible, intangible and digital heritage?
