The core idea of DIP is to promote performance and research, especially artistic research, by giving performers, composers, and researchers the opportunity to present their research projects. DIP places the emphasis on performance itself, and therefore conference will be in-person only.
The Doctors in Performance Festival Conference (DIP) was established in 2014 at the University of the Arts Helsinki. Since then, it has been organized by the following institutions: The Royal Irish Academy of Music (2016, Dublin), The Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre (Vilnius 2018), The Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre (Tallinn, 2021) and The Royal Academy of Music (London, 2023).
DIP2025 is organized by the following units of the University of the Arts Helsinki:
- Sibelius Academy´s doctoral schools DocMus (Department of Classical Music) and MuTri (Department of Music Education, Jazz and Folk Music),
- Research Institute´s History Forum Network and the Open Campus.
