- Thursday 1 October
Fifty years ago, Denmark’s first Music Act came into force with the ambition that music should not be a luxury, but an essential part of society. Since then, the Act has helped shape the framework for music schools, venues, orchestras and the development of new musical communities.
But what ambitions should shape the next 50 years?
Marking the 50th anniversary of the Music Act, we turn our attention to the future and ask what role music policy should play in shaping the music landscape of tomorrow. What should it support, protect and make space for? And what new ideas and priorities are needed to ensure that music and musical communities can continue to evolve?
Drawing on experiences from across the music sector and perspectives from artists, emerging talent and music policy communities, the conversation explores what we hope the music policy of the future will be remembered for when we look back 50 years from now.
