Current European cooperation and research projects

HARMA+: EUROPEAN LANDSCAPE OF TEACHING PRACTICES AND PEDAGOGICAL INNOVATION IN HMEI’S - MUSIC THEORY FIELDS

 
HarMA+ is a strategic partnership funded by the European Commission's Erasmus+ programme, tackling the question of the transfer of practices and methodologies between higher music education institutions (HMEI), in particular for music theory courses. The project is originally founded by Salvatore Gioveni and coordinated by the Conservatoire royal de Bruxelles and the project partners. The Leipzig working group is primarily responsible for the multilingual terminology dictionary that will be published online on the HarMA+ website by the project end. 
 
Project duration: September 2020 - August 2023


HarMA+ aims and objectives

HarMA+ recognises the need to develop collaborative tools, share knowledge and transfer pedagogical innovation in the very specific field of music theory in higher music education institutions throughout Europe by working towards a pedagogical rapprochement.

The project, targeting music theory departments' community (institutions, teachers, students and professionals) in HMEI's will pursue the following objectives:
