What do we foresee as the landscape of music-making in the future, and what journey might we take to get there? As we mark 2025 as a quarter of a century, I wonder what will the next 75 years bring, and what do we hope to see? This keynote will follow the imagined path of a young person navigating the musical world of the year 2100, blending speculative vision with my own experiences.
Drawing on my personal journey and stories from colleagues at European Performing Arts Students’ Association (EPASA), I explore what “In Unison” can mean in practice, musically, socially, and through the lenses of equality and diversity. This is an invitation to envision a future where our shared creativity shapes the evolving world.
