WELCOME
On behalf of the Conference Organising Group of SAMSPEL - ISME
2002, it is our pleasure to invite you to attend ISME's 25th world
conference in music education.
As organisers of SAMSPEL we believe that the new challenges for
music education in this millennium must be met with increased co-operation
and togetherness. The Norwegian word SAMSPEL means working together
in music and in other areas of human activity. However, multilateral
collaboration of many kinds produces new
questions and challenges that will be addressed at this conference.
The home town of Edvard Grieg is a modern, yet very traditional
and charming Norwegian city. Situated in the midst of the famous
Norwegian fjords, Bergen is a perfect host city for a world conference
in music education, - a conference with a wide variety of exciting
musical and educational events.
It is, indeed, a great privilege to invite you to Bergen in August
to take part in many kinds of SAMSPEL and to find the best answers
and the best solutions to the challenges in music education - together.
