Urban art, as a fluid event in the city, seeks to reduce vitality due to not paying attention to creating a vibrant urban space and creating changes in social and cultural behaviors. In the urban place, different types of arts can be seen, among which music has received less attention so that the physical-spatial scene of the city does not have a suitable place for performing music. Nowadays, in the urban space, a different kind of street musicology has been formed, playing and singing mostly as a solo or two-person performance.
This study aims to investigate creating a sense of belonging and vitality to the urban space and music audiences and the effect of music on the audience in the urban space.
The research method in this article is based on the preparing a questionnaire and selecting three different statistical populations, considering the effect of music on different sections of society. The current study is a case study of Khayyam Street in Urmia.
The results of the research indicate that, from the point of view of businessmen, passers-by, and music teachers, street music as a street art has a significant impact on urban space, music cultural as well as urban vitality and audience attraction, giving the audience a sense of belonging to the urban space.
