[edit] Description
i-Maestro is a multi-national European collaborative research project supported by the European Commission under the Information Society Technologies (IST) Sixth Framework Programme to develop interactive multimedia environments for technology enhanced music learning and teaching.
[edit] Project aims
The project aims to explore solutions for music education and training in both theory and performance, building on recent innovations resulting from the development of computer and information technologies, by exploiting new pedagogical paradigms with cooperative and interactive self-learning environment, to support the creation of flexible and personalisable e-learning courses to improve accessibility to the musical knowledge.
Music performance is not simply “to play the right note at the right time”.[1] i-Maestro project studies many relevant aspects in order to produce methods and tools for music education, taking into account key factors such as expressivity, interactivity, developing gesture-based interfaces and augmented instruments to support different types of learning and teaching including instrumental playing, with particular focus on the violin family.
