Samenvatting

Thinking about the music we use in our music teaching is crucial. The meaning of music is relational, arising from the entanglement between the music and the person, the ‘musicker’ as Christopher Small would say. The idea of entanglement gives rise to many interesting questions about musical repertoires, ranging from the operational question who choses the music to the fundamental question about the ultimate goal of music education. In my talk, I will cover a broad range of questions about musical repertoires in education, using ideas from Donna Haraway (entanglement), Gert Biesta (subjectification), homing (Paolo Boccagni) and myself (idioculturality) as an inspiration.
