Musoc: Music and Social Intervention Network excellence, inclusion and intervention in music: Navigating contexts and building sustainable working practices for musicians
The Oxford Handbook of Community Music
The Oxford Handbook of Community Music captures the vibrant, dynamic, and diverse approaches that characterize community music across the world. The chapters give a comprehensive review of achievements in the field to date, providing a ‘go-to’ volume that both deepens our understanding of what community music does and what it might become. The Handbook also looks to the future and charts new areas that are likely to define the field in the coming…
Community Music Interventions in Post-Conflict Contexts
This chapter discusses the phenomenon of community-based music interventions in sites affected by violent war and conflict. The author proposes a typology of four broad fields of intention (Music Education, Cultural Regeneration, Social Development, and Healing, Health, and Well-being) that underpin many of the music interventions documented in scholarly literature thus far. This is followed with an application of the typology to an early exempla…

Community Music: In Theory and In Practice
Community musicians move in many diverse settings, and facilitate local music activities in a wide array of community contexts including schools, hospitals, places of worship, music festivals, and prisons. Underscoring the importance of active participation and sensitivity to context, they integrate activities such as listening, improvising, inventing and performing while emphasizing equality of opportunity and fostering a diverse and welcoming e…
One-to-One Encounters: Facilitators, Participants, and Friendship
In this article, I explore the claim that one-to-one encounters between community music facilitators and music participants can be described as friendships. By exploring the relational structure through the call and the welcome, I make some general comments on friendship before finally tackling the question lying at the heart of this article: How might we understand the notion of being a friend within an educative relationship
Community music and the welcome
This article considers three interconnecting ideas surrounding community music practice; (1) the workshop as a distinctive approach through which people are given opportunities to engage with active music making (2) the welcome as a preparatory thought and consequential gesture, inviting potential music participants to the workshop space, and (3) safety without safety, an idea that describes the practice of the welcome within the workshop event. …
Growth, pathways and groundwork: Community music in the United Kingdom
This article suggests that community music in the United Kingdom emerged as a sub-strand of the community arts movement during the political and cultural changes of the late 1960s and the early 1970s. Through five themes: musicians in residence, music animateur, music collectives and punk rock, definitions, and training, Part 1 of this article establishes the significant trajectory of the community arts movement. This groundwork provides the foun…
Acts of hospitality: The community in Community Music
This article will investigate the notion of 'community' within the aspirations of Community Music. Guiding this study are the questions: How is community made manifest through Community Music? What joins the notion of community to that of music? Two distinct sections will frame this research: (1) an etymological consideration of the word 'community', followed by a rethinking of its status as a hospitable act of welcoming; and (2) a case study tha…
