TAoME 2026

An important event is coming up in March 2026: the tenth edition of the international symposium The Art of Music Education (TAoME)!

From 4 to 6 March 2026, we cordially invite you to this anniversary event at the Körber Foundation. You can look forward to a varied programme of inspiring lectures, interactive workshops and discussion formats that will provide space for sharing and learning together.

The TAoME symposium has always looked inwards – and outwards: at the specialist scene and the society around it. In 2026, we want to look to the future as well as analyse the current situation – and discuss working methods, approaches and visions. In keeping with the subtitle ‘Creating mindsets for Concert Institutions’.

The Symposium is a biennial event that has taken place in Hamburg since 2008 and is a cooperation between the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg and the Körber Foundation and accompanied by the European Concert Hall Organisation (ECHO).

We look forward to welcoming you to the Körber Foundation in March 2026 and to exploring new perspectives in music education with you!
