music venues analysis - salumeria della musica
DESCRIPTION
The starting point of this paper is the will to understand the attending reasons of our respondents. The in-depth interviews revealed an interest in more than one aspect of a jazz venue: not only the artists but also the physical environment and the atmosphere (a little percentage was interested in aspects different from those). To start to understand and apply the PAD model, we needed to elaborate the data that come from the questionnaires and after that to conduct, with the support of SPSS, factor analysis on atmospherics and emotions. The results were then used to see “How do atmospherics influence the perception of emotions?”, “How do perceived emotions influence clients’ behavior?”, “Do atmospherics also have an effect on behavior?”. Based on the results of the regressions related to the PAD and some further analyses, we concluded our research with some managerial advice that can be useful to the owner of the place in order to exploit the effective potential of Salumeria della Musica.TRANSCRIPT

DO PEOPLE GO TO SALUMERIA BECAUSE OF THE ATMOSPHERE OR BECAUSE OF A SPECIFIC
ARTIST?

General RESEARCH
BASED ON PREVIOUS RESEARCH WE ASSUME THAT:
• PEOPLE GO TO LISTEN TO LIVE MUSIC EITHER BECAUSE THEY ARE INTERSTED IN THE
ARTIST PERFORMING/ MUSIC OR BECAUSE OF PERSONAL AND SOCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
• THE MAIN MOTIVATION OF PEOPLE TO ATTEND A MUSIC FESTIVAL IS THE MUSIC ITSELF
• LISTENER’S LEVEL OF ANITICIPATION FOR A CONCERT, THE PLAYERS’ APPARENT
ENGAGEMENT, THE REPERTOIRE AND QUALITY OF THE PERFORMANCE ARE THE MAIN
FACTORS TROUGH WHICH ENJOYMENT IS INFLUENCED BY THE VENUES EXPERIENCE
• THERE IS A DISTINCTION BETWEEN HIGH AND LOW CULTURE
• THERE IS A DISTINCTION BETWEEN FANS AND CONSUMERS
