This project is undertaken with the aim of understanding what community music is from a two-pronged approach of theory and practice, and of sharing ideas and thoughts on what constitutes community music with as many people as possible involved in this field, including artists, those in management positions, people working in welfare and government etc.
For the practical component, using the “Uta-no-Sumu-Ie Project” as an example we experimented with artists in multiple fields such as musicians and choreographers, working together to facilitate a workshop. In addition to the workshop, we held a mini concert in which workshop participants joined us in presenting creative works, and a symposium to examine events that occur in practice and to exchange opinions.
Workshop instructors: Tamami Yamada (choreographer), Sokkyou Karamēru Dan （Miki Akahane & Keiko Masaki）
For the theory component, guest lecturer Jess Abrams, a community musician from the UK, discussed examples from UK, and we held a lecture in which we considered the future of community music in Japan.
