Social engagement in artistic research
Paul Craenen, Royal Conservatoire The Hague

Music Performance students at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague show an increasing interest in research into cross-disciplinary projects and innovative curatorial approaches. However, only a small minority show interest in more explicit forms of social engagement through musical practice. How might socially engaged practices become a more natural part of the ecology of higher music education and what effect might this have on perceptions of artistic identity?

Group Musik Making in Nursing Homes: the effects on conservatoire students engaged as facilitators
Paolo Paolantonio, Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana Lugano

Trained conservatoire students engaged in a ten-week group music-making program with residents in nursing homes. Its results showed, aside from benefits for the residents, considerable positive effects on the professional and personal growth of the students. On this basis further programs were developed preparing music students to act as facilitators to increase health and wellbeing of elderly people.
