Within the European project MORE supported by the Culture Programme 2007-2013, the Cité de la musique, coordinator of the project, is organising a symposium on the theme « Orally transmitted music and intercultural education ».

After a presentation of general concepts and an overview of the evolution of artistic and intercultural education in Europe, this symposium will analyse artistic processes and teaching practices which could nourish and stimulate new dynamics.
