Resumen de Aspekte des Sounds im Theater: Resonanzraum, Gegenwärtigkeit, Öffentlichkeit
Theatrical performances are always also acoustic phenomena. For theatrical music and the music theatre, this is well established, but most if not all theatrical performances are defined by the interplay between dramatic, optical, and acoustic sensory mediation. Accordingly, this article focuses on those aspects of performances that determine the sound experience: the theatrical architecture as a resonating space, the presence of dramatic stories, and the public character of performances. Against this background, the article reconstructs the role of sound within the paradigm of performativity from a primarily historical perspective, before closing with an outlook on the sonic practices of current theatrical performances.
