Lecturer in electronic music pedagogy at the Academy, David Mondrup, has just completed a pedagogical development project with an analysis of his subject. Electronic Music is a relatively new area within music education, but has become increasingly popular in music schools, colleges, conservatories, etc. over the past 2-3 decades. There is thus already a pedagogical practice in the area, which the project has worked to document and discuss.<\/p>\n
Mondrup is particularly committed to two factors that characterize Electronic Music pedagogy:<\/p>\n
A very broad and distinctly creative subject: There are quite different perceptions of what “electronic music” actually is. All the music that comes out of the composition of electronic music can hardly be said to be within the same genre. However, there is agreement that the subject “Electronic Music” is a creative subject. An electronic musician is a composer.<\/p>\n
No hierarchy: The subject Electronic Music questions the hierarchical student\/teacher role. The subject works well when the teacher dares to step away from the role of omniscient dispenser of wisdom, and the teaching becomes a sharing of the lived life with the expertise. Teaching Electronic Music largely aims at creativity and artistic development, rather than learning skills.<\/p>\n
