Advances in video
conferencing technology have made it possible to
communicate with people all over the world. With the
introduction of HD Video and better than CD quality
audio, teaching and performing music over the Internet
is now a reality. The purpose of the symposium is to
identify and develop strategies to establish synchronous
distance learning as a viable means of teaching music to
anyone in the world.
The symposium will be a virtual conference with four
primary sites--Manhattan School of Music (New York),
Peabody Institute (Baltimore), Royal College of Music
(London), and Yong Siew Toh Conservatory (Singapore)--
and up to twelve additional real-time interactive
partner sites through a bridge provided by Internet2.
The conference will be webcast in real-time. In
addition, selected papers and multimedia presentations
will be featured on the symposium website.
Thomas Hampson, renowned baritone and educator will present the keynote address.
Attending the Conference:
We have openings for 15 interactive sites to connect to
the conference through the Internet2 bridge. Interactive

questions during the Q & A sessions. Requirements
