CONTEXT: We start from the Union of two European centres: the Conservatory of music "Manuel Carra", with a complete range of instrumental specialities: all symphonic musical instruments, singing, piano, guitar, organ and flamenco guitar (it is the only conservatory of Malaga that teachs these two latest specialities). Two types of certifications are expedited. The other center is the Istituto técnico "Carlos Alberto Dalla Chiesa ", is a technical high school that provides a broad theoretical education and a highly qualified specialization in specific fields of study. The integration of students with special educational needs and teachers committed to music education, stands out in this centre The main motivation that moves us is to create international collaborative educational networks that enable students and participating teachers, training experiences and mobility with schools in Europe. Also with this project we want to transmit to the different European countries, the educational value of the art and of the music in Sicily and in Spain as well as the points of Union of both cultures.
