Wind music is becoming increasingly popular in schools and conservatories in both general and specialized music courses. New media, such as iPads and music software, are finding their way into traditional education. This conference in Wadgassen will provide an opportunity for musicians to explore these new developments and discuss traditional approaches.
While papers focusing on the topic of the conference are especially invited, papers on any aspect of wind music, including research in progress, are welcome. The lectures can represent the entire field of humanities in relation to wind music: musicology, ethnology, philosophy, sociology, and educational sciences. Presentations should not exceed 20 minutes, leaving 10 minutes for discussion. Papers will be considered for future publication in the Alta Musica series. The conference languages are English and German, although papers in French, Spanish and Italian will be considered. The organizers encourage PowerPoint presentations and abstracts in English or German, especially in the case of presentations in French, Spanish or Italian. All are invited to take part, regardless of professional status, but presenters are expected to be members of IGEB.
