Business Overview
The project aims to understand what community music is from the two pillars of theory and practice, and to share what community music is with as many people as possible who are involved in this field, including artists, management, welfare, and government. In the practical part, we tried to facilitate a workshop in cooperation between musicians and music therapists, who are important players in community music in the future, using the case of the "House of Uta" project. In addition to the workshop, a mini-concert was held in which creative works were presented together with workshop participants, and a symposium was held in which events in practice were examined and opinions were exchanged. Workshop Lecturers: Setsu INOUE, Rii NUMATA and Sokku Karamerudan (Miki Akaba, Keiko Masaki). The theory section focused on workshop facilitation, with art and dance facilitators and filmmakers filming the workshops as instructors. Lecturers: Hideo Arai & Kiyoko Itasaka, Hiroaki Nakatsugawa, Kentaro Ueda, Mari Shiobara Planning: Monten, Miki Akaba Production: Yaeko Kurosaki Cooperation: Paleidrian
