The Art of Music Education
Symposium from 4 to 6 March 2025 – Private event
Since 2008, the Elbphilharmonie and the Körber Foundation have gathered the international community of music educators every two years to collectively explore the opportunities and challenges of music education work. The symposium »The Art of Music Education« (TAOME) deals with the central topics of our time. For example: How can concert culture in Europe be kept lively, diverse and attractive to a changing audience?
