"In classical music we talk about concerts – but to continue to engage new listeners in new ways, we should transform our concerts into events. The third part of my miniseries Curating the Concert Experience explores the concept of Platform: exploding a concert into an event that complements the program with sympathetic artists from different genres, featuring them in normally empty parts of a concert," Mason has this week told The Violin Channel.

"Production is the second part of this mini mini-series - exploring the ways we experience classical music ..." Mason has this week told The Violin Channel.

"What’s the role of production in classical music? Stagecraft, lighting and ambient information can greatly enhance the classical music experience ... where the audience sits or stands in relation to the performers, how the space is lit, as well as where and how program information is presented or projected all have an impact on how we experience a performance," he has said.

In the 3 part web series, Mason breaks down the main elements of concert curation - including programming and production and ideas for expanding the concert experience and audience platform.

“During the past 15 years of creating concerts for orchestras as a composer and club shows as a DJ, I’ve thought a lot about how we experience music, how we can get information to audiences in new ways, and how we can experiment with the frame around the music that we hear,” Mason has told The Violin Channel.
