AEC Annual Congress

The AEC Annual Congress 2009 took place at the Academy of Music in Maastricht, one of the oldest cities in The Netherlands. The Maastricht Academy of Music, this year’s congress host, plays an important role in the musical activities of the city. It is an internationally oriented institution, forming part of Zuyd University.

The AEC continued to address the role of research in conservatoire education during this year’s congress. Information about the progress of the second 3-year cycle of the ERASMUS Network for Music ‘Polifonia’ was also presented. Furthermore, the AEC Congress 2009 addressed the local and regional function of conservatoires as cultural centres.
