The search for quality in community engagement lies at the heart
of these stories by musicians and artists from five countries, who
work in challenging cross-sector and cross-cultural contexts.
Their experience ranges widely from community neighbourhoods,
schools and prisons to arts centres, orchestras, youth opera,
music therapy, disability and dementia care. What stands out
is their passion for people and for art: there is no place for
compromise.
A central theme of the book is the implications of such diverse
work for the learning and development of arts practitioners. It
challenges Higher Arts Education institutions to re-order their
priorities and to bring community engagement in from the margins.
Peter Renshaw is a learning consultant and member of the
Research Group Lifelong Learning in Music & the Arts of the Prince
Claus Conservatoire in Groningen and Royal Conservatoire in The
Hague. He works and lives in London.
