This project endeavors to make a significant contribution to the fields of artistic research and music practice by introducing a series of innovative musical works. These works will emerge as the culmination of extensive research, embodying a novel fusion of diverse musical traditions. I will prioritize the following critical areas of focus:

 

Innovative Fusion of Styles:

Highlighting the unique blend of Norwegian folk music, Nordic jazz, and Sardinian folk traditions. This fusion itself is novel, as it combines elements that are not traditionally associated with one another. This research will create a new soundscape that has not been explored before.

 

Multidisciplinary Approach:

Emphasizing the research project`s multidisciplinary methodology, which may include not just music, but elements of storytelling and cultural history*. This approach can open up new avenues for understanding and appreciating the interconnectedness of different art forms.

 

Personal and Intimate Perspective:

My rooted Sardinian perspective provides a unique lens through which these musical traditions are interpreted. A personal touch adds depth and authenticity to the project, offering insights into Sardinian culture while also reinterpreting traditions.

 

Promotion of Cultural Dialogue:

The project serves as a bridge between different musical cultures, promoting understanding and appreciation of diverse traditions. This aspect is crucial in today's globalized world, where cultural exchange is key to mutual respect and understanding.

 

Future Collaborative Opportunities:

This project can open doors for future collaborations between musicians from different backgrounds, fostering a more inclusive and innovative music community.

 

Educational Value:

The potential educational impact of this projectcan serve as a resource for learning about different musical traditions and the creative process of fusing them, paving a pedagogical yet artistic narrative path.
