Team information
The Aesthetics, Culture and Media (ACCLAIM) research group looks at how culture and societal norms and values affect people's music habits, personal experiences, musical learning and music education. Research conducted within the group explores issues of: music and equality (looking especially at gender, class, nationality and ethnicity); music, social media and digitization; and musical didactics and education. The group fosters critical analysis and critical discussion using interdisciplinary musicological theory, combined with a particular focus on philosophical, cultural-theoretical and didactic perspectives.
