New podcast series:

Darina Ablogina, host of the English-language podcast ‘(In)Sight – Reading Enlightenment’, accompanied our symposium ‘Creating New Spaces – Approaches to Colonial Heritage in Early Music’. In a three-part podcast series, she joins artists and scientists to explore how colonial structures continue to shape the world of early music, presents initiatives that forge new paths in how we approach and handle this heritage, and reflects on how art can open up a space of safety and transformation.
