Runder Tisch Musik

On the 23rd of May the Department of Cultural Education hosted the first Round Table Music for practitioners and organisation who work in the field of music education in Munich. I was invited to co-host the day, in collaboration with the director of education of the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra (Simone Siwek) and the Youth Centre Quax (Florian Knappick). I lead an exercise about the principles of cultural education (for example participation, accessiblity, diversity) and briefly introduced my research project on community music in Munich.
