PGVIM International Symposium 2025 "Diversity in Unison: Wonderland"
Drawing inspiration from Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland"—a tale of transformation, curiosity, and navigating unfamiliar territories—this symposium explores how diverse musical traditions encounter and reshape one another. Like Alice's journey through a world where familiar rules no longer apply, we examine how musicians and musical communities venture into new artistic territories, discovering unexpected connections and possibilities.
Our "Wonderland" represents the creative space where musical boundaries become fluid, where genres and traditions interact in surprising ways, and where the process of transformation itself becomes a source of artistic innovation. Through concrete musical examples and case studies, we seek to understand how artists navigate the challenges and opportunities of cross-cultural collaboration while maintaining the integrity of their distinct traditions.
