Background

Teaching from the Masters' of the Melodies project was initiated to support the professional development of music students. The institutions aimed to enable young musicians to explore cultural diversity and develop their career goals by gaining international experiences. In particular, the need for students to increase their professional skills by collaborating with professional musicians from different cultures was responded to. At the same time, the need for teachers to improve their professional competences by experiencing different music education approaches was also taken into account. The project provided a platform for the interaction of musical cultures and the promotion of musical diversity with participants from different parts of Europe. Introducing traditional musical instruments, developing improvisation skills and gaining confidence in stage performances were designed to contribute to the students' future careers.
