Musicians' Attitudes Towards Concert Activities in the First Year of the Pandemic: Belgrade Context
Keywords:
coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19), musicians, concert, online concert, concert lifeAbstract
This paper is based on the intersection of studies of performing arts, music and digital media in the field of musicology, which I connected with empirical research of professional musicians' attitudes towards Belgrade concert life in art music in the first year of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). The research was conducted on the basis of a survey in which fifteen concert musicians participated. Given the appropriate theoretical perspective, the considerations are contextualized with respect to global changes of concert life.
