The Art of Music Education

The Art of Music Education –
Creating mindsets for Concert Institutions

A work of art comes to life only through contact with the audience. This contact is created through knowledge, curiosity, and an encounter that sparks a desire for more. Educational work in concert halls, opera houses, music festivals, and orchestras is therefore key to their future acceptance and relevance.

With the conference The Art of Music Education (TAoME), we aim to create a space for resonance and reflection for this work with and for music — to train, empower, and connect education professionals.

From March 4–6, 2026, the time has come:
We look forward to the tenth edition of the symposium “The Art of Music Education”!
