Beethovenfest music education

»How can we manage to no longer differentiate between the main programme and music education? How can we design sustainable projects together with different communities? In response to these questions, we have created the Beethovenfest Inside programme.«

In this special episode of bee.contemporary, artistic director Steven Walter meets the Beethovenfest’s two music education managers Marion Leuschner and Lydia Kappesser. He talks to them about today’s definition of music education, what a niche existence music education had in institutionalised cultural promotion until a few years ago and what steps need to be taken to ensure that it becomes a proclaimed cross-sectional task at Beethovenfest in the future.

bee.contemporary is the discussion podcast of Beethovenfest Bonn. Here we invite guests from the worlds of music, culture and society to talk to us about current artistic projects and contemporary discourse.
