In the third session of our Community music and ethics series, we take a deeper look into the most basic word we use to talk about our projects and our practice: “music”.

We will think about questions like, What is “music” in your practice/projects? And, why does “music” help?

Based on her PhD research, Marion Haak-Schulenburg offers an exploration and a reflection of how we use the term “music” and how different discursive origins and traditions of thought can be found for the claims we make in regards to music’s positive impact. Using the examples of two music projects based in Palestine, she traces how the idea of “music” and its positive effects shapes the reality of the projects and which unrecognized implications might be carried along.

Date: Thursday 6 May 2021
