Tuning in! is a research project that investigates the possibilities of the emergence of an 'embodied community' in an amateur choir that sings resistance songs at Aslan Muziekschool in Amsterdam Nieuw-West. What are the ways to connect to struggles here and elsewhere through singing resistance songs together? How does an amateur choir (of activists, students, parents, artists, teachers) become a community? What (embodied) skills can we use and develop through music-making that can help us create individual and communal transformation? A pilot took place in March/April 2023, after which the choir started in September 2023.
