The purpose of the symposium is to bring together researchers and educators from a broad range of 

disciplines, including but not limited to cognitive development, psychology, sociology, aging studies, 

early childhood education, K-12 music, neuropsychology, and emerging fields such as mind brain 

education. Research exploring music in all settings (e.g., community, home, school, individual, and 

group), at all age levels from prenatal through the entire lifespan, from all musical traditions, and with 

regard to all aspects of music is invited. The symposium will foster national and international 

collaborations on research projects that serve to advance music learning at all stages of the lifespan 

as well as to advance public understanding of research-to-practice.
