Cowgill, Rachel Elizabeth, Dix, Alan, Bashford, Christina et al. (5 more authors) (2020) Democratising Digitisation : Making History with Community Music Societies in Digitally Enabled Collaborations. In: 7th International Conference on Digital Libraries for Musicology, 16 Oct 2020.
Abstract
In post-COVID times we are focusing quite rightly on the plight of our major cultural institutions; but just as important are the local societies that enrich our community life, including amateur music societies, devastated by stringent social-distancing requirements and the health and safety implications of live performance in small spaces. We propose a vision of digitally enabled collaboration that may help these societies rebuild their sense of community and purpose, by working together with academics, archives, and a major US arts centre to reconnect with their past and enrich understanding of their own histories and traditions within a broader national context.
