LATIMPE (platform for Learning And Teaching In Music Performance Education)

LATIMPE was established as a collaboration between CEMPE in Norway, and the European umbrella organization for higher music education (AEC).

Between 2018-2021, LATIMPE was part of the larger EU-funded project "Strengthening Music in Society", run by AEC. On their webpage, you can find more information on the results and outcomes of the project.

The website latimpe.eu (2018–2023) was a site where European music education institutions could share their experiences from research and development in teaching and learning in music performance education. Some of the projects, publications and experiences that were gathered at Latimpe.eu can be found today on the websites of NMH.
