Cadenza Project and Manchester Camerata Research Concert

About this event

The Cadenza project is researching how to improve music for people with hearing loss. We are putting on a free concert working with Manchester Camerata. This is a unique opportunity for you to shape future research on hearing aids while enjoying hearing the fabulous Camerata. The concert will feature Beethoven's Symphony No. 6, the Pastoral Symphony. What is a research concert? To start with the Camerata will play a movement from the symphony and you can just sit back and enjoy. Then we will start the experiment. The orchestra will then perform short excerpts in different ways to explore common problems people with hearing loss have with live classical music. You will be asked to give feedback on each rendition via a simple questionnaire. The Camerata will finally play another movement, where you can just relax and listen or do an optional additional research task. The answers you give will help us to develop new ways to improve music for those who have a hearing loss and/or hearing aids. Results will also be published in scientific papers. The event will finish with a short Q&A with experts from the Cadenza project so you can ask about hearing loss, hearing aids and listening to m
