Music, Pedagogy and Community

A one day symposium to be held at the University of South Wales

Cardiff Campus, ATRiuM Building, 86-88 Adam Street, CF24 2FN

9.30am – 5.00pm, Saturday, 5th March 2016

 

Keynote speaker: Professor Raymond MacDonald (University of Edinburgh)

 

Description

The University of South Wales and the Creative Industries Research Institute will host a symposium on music, pedagogy and community. The symposium will explore ideas of how musical participatory practices can build a sense of community, and how pedagogical practices, formal but also and possibly more importantly informal, are a part of the process of social continuity in certain societies, cultures or sub-cultures. We want to bring scholars and artists together to explore and investigate the notions of communities built (wholly or in part) around music. The symposium is a one day event which takes place on 5th of March 2016. Registration is now open: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/music-pedagogy-and-community-symposium-tickets-20694791679 .
