Creative Listening – Extended Informal Learning for Music Experiences
The project carries as its point of departure a confidence in the concept of life-long learning and the belief that access to and
knowledge about a wide range of music is an important part of the single individual’s development rights in a democratic
society. The focus is on adults’ potential of learning music and the extension of adult learner’s abilities of experiencing
music through informal educational means. The aim of the project is to exchange experiences about and to develop
methodology concerning different kinds of informal education of adults towards and through music. Simply put: How to
bring people in contact with music they not formally would have discovered? Some of the methodologies to be shared are
informal lectures in music history, composer workshop for inexperienced adults and workshop for extending music teachers’
creative abilities through improvisation and arts. Success of the project is measured in terms of active participants’ extended
methodologies repertoire, implementation of what is learned into everyday work, increased understanding of the use of
informal educational means for extending adults’ listening abilities and increased understanding of the European informal
music educational field.
