Tour Posters: Sympathetic Resonance Trio

Here are posters for the Barents tour of the Sympathetic Resonance Trio, which offers a program of timeless songs on the theme of nature, peace, empathy and international cooperation during wartime.

TESTIMONIALS FROM THE TOUR:

“… truly exceptional. The event seamlessly blended artistic expression with community engagement, showcasing the profound impact of sympathetic resonance in a live performance setting. The musicianship was outstanding, deeply engaging the audience and creating a captivating atmosphere. This concert not only provided a delightful cultural experience but also underscored the innovative dedication of Sympathetic Resonance in exploring the intricate connections between music and human emotions across national borders.”

– Research Director, Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research (May, 2024).

“The Sympathetic Resonance Trio, consisting of Sergei Tchirkov (accordion), David Gabriel Hebert (trumpet, vocals), and Ole Øvretveit (guitar), delivered a memorable performance that deeply resonated with our audience. The trio's ability to play with different musical traditions and styles resulted in a unique program that captivated everyone in attendance. For us, it was also important that the trio's work is built on collaboration and improvisation, crossing cultural and geographical boundaries. Their music serves as a meeting point for different cultures, represented by the USA, Norway, and Russia. We believe that this kind of collaboration and dialogue is extremely important today. Hosting the Sympathetic Resonance Trio was a great experience. They showed impressive artistry and professionalism. We're keen to invite them for future performances. We believe their music has significant cultural and artistic value, and their presence supports our mission of promoting artistic exchange and cultural enrichment in Kirkenes. We look forward to the possibility of working with the Sympathetic Resonance Trio again and continuing to support their artistic journey.”

Welcome to Sociomusicology

For over 15 years (since 2007), this website has offered musings on contemporary society and its music by David G. Hebert, PhD. He is a sociomusicologist specializing in global music education who has held academic positions with universities on five continents. Dr. Hebert is now a tenured full Professor with Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Bergen. There he leads the Grieg Academy Music Education (GAME) research group and manages the multinational government-funded Nordic Network for Music Education, which organizes annual intensive Master courses and exchange of teachers and students across eight countries. He is also an Affiliated Professor with University of the Faroe Islands and an Honorary Professor in China with the Education University of Hong Kong.

Professor Hebert's research applies an international-comparative perspective to issues of pluralism, identity, and cultural relevance in music education, as well as processes by which new music traditions emerge and change - both sonically and socially - as they are adopted into institutions. Born in the 1970s, he is among the most widely-published and globally-active music scholars of his generation (h-index:20; i10-index:30), with professional activities in an average of 8 countries per year across the past decade (2008-2020).
