A delegation of EJN staff and Board members participated at the Pop and Jazz Platform Meeting 2017 that took place at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, London on 17-18 February, in the framework of the AEC Full Score Project. The ongoing collaboration between EJN, AEC (European Association of Conservatories) and IASJ (International Association of Schools of Jazz), whose representatives were also present at the meeting, was strengthened by the participation at the event and side meetings were organised in order to asses the work done so far and discuss about future developments.
The theme of the Conference was: CROSS THE BAR LINE - It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
Educating musicians to combine craft and integrity in their music-making and to think beyond borders with a readiness both to engage with commercial structures and vested interests and to assume the role of cultural citizens and leaders. Using the challenge of audience engagement as a creative spur to re-thinking musical languages and performing contexts
