Abstract
The classical music concert production is nowadays utilizing number of sophisticated and advanced technologies. The light design in classical music is important yet neglected task in production work. Basic principles of light design were topic of two days’ workshop in spring 2019 for lecturers and students at the Music Faculty of the Janacek Academy of Music and Performing Arts in Brno. Important was a collaboration with professionals from the Theatre Faculty, Department of Light design and Music Faculty, Department of Music Production. During the workshop attendees learned how to work with lighting technology, created and realized were concepts of lighting design. During the workshop there were presented two similar concerts – one without use of light design the second one with the use of technologies. During the workshop the students created two live performances which were working with a light concept (percussions and baroque trio). The music production and performing music students must find new ways how to enhance the experience from their performances and light is a one of the most important ways. It helps them to gain an advantage in the field. After a final concert there was an evaluation and discussion about the performances and the role of light in them. Conclusion: Technologies are gaining importance during the process of a classical music concert production. This kind of technological enhancement offers to the audience a new dimension of music consumption and aesthetics. It helps the musician to stand out of the crowd so they can reach to new audiences more easily and gain competitive advantage.
