Don Lebler caught up with Prof Göran Folkestad (Malmö University, Sweden) at the courtyard of one of the conference venues, the Accademia Belle Arti:
Followed by a presentation by Don Lebler (Qld Con) and Rosie Burt-Perkins (RCM) entitled 'What the students bring: Examining the attributes of commencing conservatoire students' (check out the venue):
Another beautiful location was the Palazzo-Malverzzi:

Here, the Qld Con's Stephen Emmerson presented some of his multmedia-based research on 'Around a Rondo' to a fascinated audience:


Don Lebler and myself presented on a Symposia panel with Bo Nilsson and Anna-Rita Addessi, chaired by Göran Folkestad & entitled 'Music Education 2.0: How refelctive practice, peer-review and a participatory culture is enabled in the new curricula'.

This symposium examined the idea of Music Education 2.0 in response to transformed notions of music-making enabled by 21st century culture and associated web 2.0 practices. Through the lens of new formations in university music curricula from around the world, the symposium examined i) the nature of both personal and distributed technologies and their effects on innovation in teaching, learning and music-making; ii) the advent and impact of the Internet on cultural value systems; and iii) a higher education imperative to embed judgement, negotiation, reflective practice and peer review into learning practices which enable the kinds of literacies required for new careers in global knowledge economies.
Don and myself presented work from the Qld Con Popular Music and Music Technology programs, while Bo and Anna-Rita showed us some wonderful work in early childhood education, in particular, the amazing interactive software called 'The Continuator' from the Sony Computed Science Laboratory in Paris.

We also caught up with Frank Millward (Kingston University, UK), Heather Keens (Surrey University, UK) and Miikka Salavuo (Sibelius Academy, Finland) who is doing some wonderful work in music technology and web 2.0. Hope to see Miikka in Australia in the near future!
I also presented a paper, co-authored with Qld Con Matt Hitchcock, entitled 'The hidden music curriculum: Utilising blended learning to enable a participatory culture'.

Meanwhile, Qld Con's Huib Schippers chaired an engaging panel in the symposium 'Embracing diversity: A new ISME policy on world music in education':

And finally, many thanks for Qld Con's Scott Harrison for hosting a terrific get-together and final drinks in his spectacular apartment at the top of the old city:

Thanks to everyone for making this a memorable conference.
