General info 

The autumn 2015 course will focus on the study of musical practices.   We have keynote presentations from the fields of music therapy, musicology, artistic research and music education.   The keynote papers will focus on a range of relevant and thought provoking issues including case study as a method of socio-musical research, methods for understanding diverse musical creativities, historically informed performance as a method, the concept of practitioner knowledge across disciplines and the ethics of listening.

Keynote speakers include:

Dr. Pamela Burnard, University of Cambridge, UK

Dr. Nanette Nielsen, University of Oslo, Norway

Dr. Gary Ansdell, Nordoff Robbins, UK

Jostein Gundersen, University of Bergen, Norway

Practitioner Knowledge Research Program, University of Stavanger, Norway

The two first days of the course will focus on candidate work. Candidates can participate and gain credits via written submissions and oral presentations that focus on their own project or related key texts.  All presentations receive feedback from both senior researchers and peers. 

For more information, incl. detailed information about keynote and candidate presentations, see the Book of Abstracts (right margin) and/or contact us.
