description | The Covid-19 pandemic has significantly changed the way people spend their leisure time, including the pattern they listen to music - one of the most common leisure activities of Poles. In the early days of the pandemic, cultural institutions, among others the musical ones, were closed and outdoor concerts and festivals were cancelled, so that spectators lost the opportunity to participate in any musical events and artists to perform live music. There was nothing left but to transfer those activities to the Internet. However, it quickly turned out that such contact with music was insufficient for listeners and performers. According to research, one of the greatest longings during the pandemic was the desire to participate in a live music event - a gig or a festival. The article presents a festival as an example of the culture multi-sensory event, a kind of celebration in which music plays important social functions of social integration and building a sense of community which is what Poles missed most during the pandemic. |
