“…In the behaviorally restricted setting of a classical concert, however, real and spontaneous interaction is only possible to a small degree. The only legitimate form of mutual feedback is applause ( Toelle, 2018 ), which not only informs the musicians how the audience is responding to their performances, but also provides feedback to an audience member on the reception of the music by other audience members.…”

Performing and listening to music occurs in specific situations, requiring specific media. Empirical research on music listening and appreciation, however, tends to overlook the effects these situations and media may have on the listening experience. This article uses the sociological concept of the frame to develop a theory of an aesthetic experience with music as the result of encountering sound/music in the context of a specific situation. By presenting a transdisciplinary sub-field of empirical (concert) studies, we unfold this theory for one such frame: the classical concert. After sketching out the underlying theoretical framework, a selective literature review is conducted to look for evidence on the general plausibility of the single elements of this emerging theory and to identify desiderata. We refer to common criticisms of the standard classical concert, and how new concert formats try to overcome alleged shortcomings and detrimental effects. Finally, an empirical research program is proposed, in which frames and frame components are experimentally manipulated and compared to establish their respective affordances and effects on the musical experience. Such a research program will provide empirical evidence to tackle a question that is still open to debate, i.e., whether the diversified world of modern-day music listening formats also holds a place for the classical concert – and if so, for what kind of classical concert.

Integration of methods is an option for interdisciplinary research settings, allowing insights into the fleeting moments of aesthetic experience. This chapter aims to exemplify such research settings by introducing two research projects: eMotion: MappingMuseum Experience and ECR—Experimental Concert Research. eMotion concerned aesthetic experiences in the environment of a fine arts museum, and ECR investigates music experience in concerts. Both projects were conducted in ecologically valid environments: the fine art museum and the classical concert hall, respectively. The technical setup of both projects merged different data levels—body movement, heart rate, skin conductance, facial expressions, sociological variables, and emotional and aesthetic evaluations of specific artworks or musical pieces—into an integrated dataset. In both projects, scientists (from musicology, art history, psychology, cultural studies, etc.), technicians, and programmers, as well as practitioners like artists, musicians, and curators, were brought together to intensively cooperate. The chapter elaborates on the aspects of such inter- and transdisciplinary research endeavors.
