In a world saturated with sonic and social noise, this project positions listening as a deliberate, ethical, and relational practice. Through a series of interdisciplinary performances and compositions, I investigate how improvisation and spatial acoustics can cultivate human connection, challenge perceptual norms, and activate space as a responsive collaborator. Drawing on theories from acoustic ecology, performance studies, and architecture, particularly the work of Beatriz Colomina, Paulina Oliveros, Blesser and Salter, I explore how environments shape musical communication and identity. Improvisation functions not only as a musical technique, but also as a method of social engagement and shared authorship. This research embraces openness, embodiment, and collective presence as central to how music is created, perceived, and lived.

A quest to belonging
My role within music and meaning-making
This reflection is about my quest to find my own folklore, which turned ou to be a quest for belonging. Along the way, I discovered that what I was truly searching for was a sense of belonging and deeper meaning in my life as a human being and musician. My master’s study became an exploration of existential questions, providing me with greater understanding. This quest changed my perspective on being a musician, proving to be life-changing. The journey initiated by this master’s study will continue beyond graduation. Within these two years, through this existential quest for belonging and learning from different wisdom traditions, I found my folklore, because I found out a little bit more about myself. This led to discovering my purpose as a musician and how I want to dedicate the rest of my life to it.

The project's ultimate goal is to explore multiple ways to make classical music and in my case viola and chamber music repertoire emotionally more accessible to both the listener and performer. I intend to achieve this goal through storytelling with the aid of a different art form that I am passionate about and has a deep-rooted connection to music: poetry.
