Leadership

Advocacy, Public Policy, External Communication, Management Skills, Networking

The 21st century musician expects increased professional challenges, particularly when the ideals of tradition, technology, and relevance are in conflict. In this current term, SEADOM will work with its members to identify the essential leadership skills our members will need to provide to our students in order for them to effectively advocate on behalf of their distinctive music culture and practices. These identified skill sets could be institutionalised, by way of embedding into our curricula (and beyond), and help contribute to other essential  music management areas including communications and public policy.

Southeast Asia Heritage and Evolving Identities

Creation, Innovation, Technology, 30 under 30

Home to some of the world’s oldest civilizations, Southeast Asia is also one of the most culturally diverse regions on the planet. Intangible cultural heritage comprises the performing arts at large as well as local knowledge surrounding these traditions. Music and the performing arts are experienced in relation to rituals, courts, folk genres, as well as new compositions and popular music that serves as the foundation of new regional genres. 

Presently, there is an ever-increasing consciousness of a shared identity in the region, which includes coming to terms with a colonial past and the challenges of modernity. Today, Southeast Asian music encompasses numerous experiences, from pre-colonial music traditions, to colonial genres and the development of local variations, to the emergence of syncretic traditions via new religions, to musical exchanges via merchants, to new music performed and disseminated in entrepôts, to 20th century influences of classical, jazz, and new popular music genres.  Southeast Asian evolving identities considers a wide spectrum from new traditional pieces for emblematic ensembles such as gamelan in Indonesia and Piphat in Thailand to new compositions for western orchestra instruments that are reflective of a Southeast Asian experience, be it musical or symbolic.
