Applied Research
We pride ourselves on creating and leading applied research projects that are musician-centered and context-relevant. Our team is dedicated to developing real-world understanding and solutions within the music education and performance contexts. Our research is inspired by implementation science and action-research, prioritizing co-construction of knowledge and knowledge application studies.
