Co:ZY x RIA
What will classical music sound like in 2024 if we let young people decide?
The various genres of classical music typically arose through a playful and experimental approach to the musical material of the time. Today, there is a rather stark divide between rhythmic and classical music, which we at Concerto Copenhagen want to challenge. For what happens if we invite young people between the ages of 15 and 30 into our musical space and let them compose based on their own premises?
With the Co:ZY project, Concerto Copenhagen will explore the boundaries between genres and create music in collaboration with young music students from the RIA Collective in Roskilde and MGK Sjælland on baroque instruments, classical instruments, and percussion instruments.
Today, there is a wide gap between what MON classical music and popular music. MON seen many attempts to bridge this gap by changing the framework and formats in the hope of appealing to a younger audience. In short, MON is trying MON repackage the same artistic expression. But what if MON the artistic expression to the present day?
With Co:ZY, Concerto Copenhagen will explore how young people react when the music they know from their everyday lives is played on instruments from the 17th and 18th centuries. Together, Concerto Copenhagen's professional musicians and young students will create entirely new musical expressions, which will hopefully enrich both parties and give us all a new engagement and curiosity about the music we already know and the music that is new to us.
Co:ZY x RIA is a pilot project in collaboration with RIA Kollektivet in Roskilde and Wednesday Club in Copenhagen. The project is the first step in the long-term initiative ‘Co:ZY’, which aims to create more understanding and engagement with classical music among young people, both digitally and live, in the form of video formats, workshops, and, in the long term, concerts.
