Abstract (Swedish)
Scenisk kör är något som vi har uppmärksammat växer i körvärlden i stort. Tiden när varje kör står i en körbanan med sina pärmar och framför musiken som de har övat in håller på att ändras. Därför har vi som musiklärarstudenter på Musikhögskolan i Malmö genomfört en aktionsforskningsstudie där vi har hållit i tre workshops med kören Bella Voce - Lunds Studentsångerskor där vi har undersökt hur körledare kan arbeta tvärkonstnärligt med en kör. Vi har även undersökt hur deltagande körsångare upplevde våra workshops. Inför våra workshops intervjuade vi den erfarna körregissören Anci Hjulström för att få en bättre inblick i hur en körledare kan genomföra workshops inom ämnet scenisk kör. Resultatet av vår studie visade att sångarna i kören... (More)

Resultatet av vår studie visade att sångarna i kören hade olika uppfattning om hur mycket tvärkonstnärligt arbete bidrog till kören. Processen har bidragit till att kören som helhet reflekterar mer kring vad de gör och varför de gör det, samt till att de gärna tar diskussioner kring musikaliska aspekter och vad som händer vid användandet av olika verktyg på ett annat sätt än tidigare.

Abstract
Scenic choir is a growing phenomenon in the choral world at large. Increasingly, choir singers are no longer simply standing still in a formation commonly referred to as a Choir banana, holding their music folder while performing rehearsed music: the times are changing. This reflection has led us, as music teacher students at the Malmö Academy of Music, to conduct an Action Research study aiming to explore how a choir director can work interdisciplinarily with their choir. Furthermore, we have researched how participating choir members perceived working interdisciplinarily by conducting three workshops with the choir Bella Voce - Lund Female Student Singers. As preparation for our workshops, we interviewed a director for choirs, Anci... (More)
Scenic choir is a growing phenomenon in the choral world at large. Increasingly, choir singers are no longer simply standing still in a formation commonly referred to as a Choir banana, holding their music folder while performing rehearsed music: the times are changing. This reflection has led us, as music teacher students at the Malmö Academy of Music, to conduct an Action Research study aiming to explore how a choir director can work interdisciplinarily with their choir. Furthermore, we have researched how participating choir members perceived working interdisciplinarily by conducting three workshops with the choir Bella Voce - Lund Female Student Singers. As preparation for our workshops, we interviewed a director for choirs, Anci Hjulström, who is experienced in leading workshops on the subject, to further our understanding of how a choir leader can conduct scenic choir workshops.
The results of our study show that the choir singers within the choir had different perceptions of how interdisciplinary work contributes to the choir as a whole. Furthermore, the Action Research process that the choir participated in has been shown to encourage the choir members to reflect more on what they do and why they do it. It has also led to them participating more willingly in discussions around musical aspects and reflecting on the use of different tools to improve their performance. (Less)
