The third Music Education Alliance Across the Silk Road conference, organized by the Central Conservatory of Music, took place in Beijing on Oct. 15.
Musicians, university deans, and scholars from 50 music schools from 30 countries and regions attended the event.
Launched in 2017, the conference is held every three years in alliance member countries along the routes of the former Silk Road. According to Yu Feng, president of the Central Conservatory of Music, the ancient trade route was a catalyst for openness and collaboration for centuries and in addition to trade, cultural ideas also flowed along its length.
"We hope that the new alliance will contribute to music research and boost educational collaboration," Yu said. "We are glad to have created cooperation between universities, to share educational resources and promote innovation in music research."
A gala was also held on Oct. 15 at the Central Conservatory, featuring performances by musicians from home and abroad.
