The Music Producer as Artistic Co-creator by Morten Büchert

In my artistic research project, I embarked on an exploration of the continuum between the roles of a music producer as both facilitator and initiator. Through in-depth engagement with real-world scenarios in professional music production, I examined the dynamics and nuances of how these roles negotiate, intersect, and shape the final artistic outcomes. This investigation not only unveils the intricate processes that underpin music creation but also highlights the implications these negotiations have on the resulting works of art. The findings shed light on the subtle artistry embedded in production decisions and offer a fresh perspective on the evolving landscape of music production.

SUBPROJECT #1

This was a collaboration with an ensemble and was an interdisciplinary art initiative called ‘Streger & Toner’ that resulted in concert, a radio show and TV production. It integrated drawings and a live musical performance of newly-composed music.

The musicians was a blend from Danish Radios' DR Symphony Orchestra, DR Big Band and DR Vocal Ensemble.

The three seperate pieces and the composers are:
