The 22nd Music School Congress of the Association of German Music Schools (VdM) begins on April 26 under the motto "Fascination Music School!". Music school directors and music teachers from around 950 music schools throughout Germany are invited.
In almost 60 working groups, themed forums and plenary events, a wide-ranging continuing education program is offered on new methods and content of singing and making music, concepts for early musical education in parent-child groups through to programs for senior citizens, successful programs for children and young people with different cultural backgrounds, the inclusion of people with disabilities and the promotion of particularly gifted children.
The congress is organized in cooperation with the Association of Bavarian Singing and Music Schools. The congress is sponsored by the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth, the Bavarian State Ministry for Science, Research and Culture, the district of Bamberg and the city of Bamberg.
