The first IN.TUNE Knowledge Hub is now open

The IN.TUNE Alliance is launching its first Knowledge Hub, and it is now open for participation! Centered on the theme Research Culture in Music & Arts (Higher) Education, this hub is a new space for students, teachers, and researchers across the Alliance to come together, exchange perspectives, and shape the future of research in music and arts education within and beyond their institutions. It is a collaborative platform to share experiences, discuss the role of research in artistic and academic practice, and contribute to the creation of a shared IN.TUNE Research Cooperation Framework. It is also the first of three Knowledge Hubs that will be developed within IN.TUNE, each designed to spark multidisciplinary dialogue and innovation across our partner institutions. The Knowledge Hub builds directly on the Inventory and Comparative Analysis of Research Activities conducted last year across all IN.TUNE partners. 

Whether you are a student, a teacher navigating research in your practice, or a researcher looking for cross-institutional exchange, this Knowledge Hub is your space to connect, reflect, and collaborate.

Coming up: the first research event!

The hub’s first major activity is the Annual IN.TUNE Research Event (AIRE), which will take place at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna on the 3rd and 4th November 2025. Leading up to the event, participants will collaborate in the online Knowledge Hub to co-develop the content and discussion points for AIRE.

AIRE will feature contributions from both teachers and students of all eight partner institutions, highlighting diverse approaches to research in the arts and offering space for open discussion, comparison, and exchange.
