INTRODUCING A NEW EMPHASIS FOR ISMEISME EXPANDS TO STUDIO TEACHERSAt the ISME conference in Bologna in July 2008 there is to be a dedicated strand focussing onthe teaching of performance. The thrust will encompass all aspects of instrumental and vocal teaching and learning that may take place in the home or school on a one-to-one or small group basis It will be of particular interest to the studio or peripatetic teacher who often works in isolation. The strand could cover all aspects of the activity and include such areas as methods, motivation, personal relationships between teacher and pupil, the role of examinations and competitions, stage fright, stage presentation, assessment, small group teaching, teaching adult beginners, teaching students with disabilities, the all-round development of the performer, verbal and non-verbal communication between teacher and pupil, and the like. This strand does not cover the training of choral and instrumental groups as such, but rather emphasizes the 'how to learn an instrument/voice' aspect of music education. This is a new emphasis for ISME and those who feel that they may have something to contribute and share with their colleagues are invited to submit an application to ISME for presentation during the conference. Papers, workshops or masterclasses may be considered for inclusion. Applications from both Western and non-Western traditions are welcome. Submissions should be made to the main conference on the ISME 2008 website. Please choose Strand II and one of the sub-strands as listed below when submitting your proposal. II) Instrumental and Vocal Teaching and Learning
