The aim of this project is to combine the knowledge of the partner organizations, to improve traditional music’s instrument play as an education object’s accessibility. Its application in education is an innovation, which in project partner lands, but also in many other EU lands, has been insufficiently appreciated. But it can become an impressive resource, which can be applied in various fields- children and adult culture education, after-school activity education, amateur groups, public and entertainment events, tourism, work with seniors and handicap people, etc. Using methods in the training, which are based on oral tradition acquiring principles and are concentrated on hearing- reproducing technique, stylistics and corresponding repertoire knowledge, the trainees have a chance to achieve a recognizable level in a very short time.The project is realized by three organizations with considerable experience in this field- LV society “Skaņumāja”, which organizes traditional music non-formal education courses for adults for many years, EE Virbel NGO, which have developed a Folk Music School and LT Utenos etnines kulturos centras, whose specialists regularly lead traditional instrument play groups for youngsters and adults. During the project the organization staff- 3 to 5 people from each, will combine their theoretical knowledge and practical work experience, to develop 9 unique high quality traditional instrument play training methodologies (in general 17 adapted versions in the national languages) . Those include traditional violin, mandolin, dulcimer, tambourine and many characteristic instruments of the region - diatonic accordion and multi-string instruments.The work will be done as following: after a previously prepared matrix, the partner country specialists will develop the instrument play training methodologies, which will be improved and supplemented with partner suggestions and tested in practical work process. Each one instrument’s methodology is developed my one country’s expert, then follows adaptation to partner needs (an exception are the unique instruments, whose methodology are coordinated with the partner experience, but their descriptions are created by each expert separately). The prepared methodology descriptions will be published in a free downloadable and printable e-book format in national and English language. Information about the new methodologies and possibilities to apply them will be disseminated to the potential users- to many hundreds of people in each country with dissemination conferences and a respectable information campaign.It is foreseen that in the nearest future after the publishing of the methodology, its application will be started by up to 20 organizations and specialists in each country, comprising about 100 trainees in different before mentioned practical activity fields. At the same time it will become an important investment in making culture more diverse and to preserve intangible culture heritage.The project’s output with the planned dissemination form will be al long-term investment in the adult education, because it will make accessible an education object, which was rarely used until now and insure with a high-quality innovative methodological guarantee without the necessity of additional resources.
