What happens in school music in Norway? Findings from a national survey of music teachers
This article reports on a survey of Norwegian compulsory school music teachers, in which 293 teachers from 239 schools participated.

We explore this material with respect to which forms of activities were included and how they were distribute…

Two data sets constitute the empirical base: (1) conversations with leaders and (2) policy d…
