I am inviting 1-to-1 music teachers & their students (age 16+) to join an exciting new study exploring how the teacher-musician relationship impacts performance & wellbeing. By giving 20 minutes of time, you'll help shape future training, making a huge difference in our field

Have a listen to my supervisor’s thoughts on why England mens footy team is not doing so well. Her research explores the impact of coach-athlete relationships. I am adapting this research into music teachers and musicians. Where might this take the conversation in music?

[Dr Sophia Jowett @JowettSophia]

While the reasons for the underperformance of the #EnglandEuro2024 football team have revolved around selections, formations, tactics and the like, my hypothesis focuses more on the interpersonal aspects between coach/es and players & the social environment within they operate ⬇️

Christmas reading sorted! Thanks @AbeBooks

Swap athlete for musician, would retiring the word talent make for more inclusive selection of young musicians onto pathways and would it help us to change the (narrow?) way we deliver music education? Fascinating paper

@classicjacko @_flourishmusic_ , perhaps we can learn a thing or two from @annalapwood

[Michelle Robinson 🏳️‍⚧️ @VocalMiche]

@Jamesedpoole Congratulations James. I will read this with interest. I have just started a PhD looking at the quality of music teacher-musician relationship and the impact on performance and wellbeing. I imagine they’re may be some parallels.

Really enjoyable afternoon in London, such interesting conversations with very interesting people.

[Dr Sophia Jowett @JowettSophia]

In London, fostering a unique research partnership between @LboroSSEHS @guildhallschool meeting colleagues and doctoral researchers.

Excellent presentations from @VocalMiche and Margarida - showcasing research that matters & concluding with a wonderful piece of music

Coach K said: You don’t own it until it penetrates your heart and your mind..with every team I’ve coached, I’ve tried to create that kind of moment

Relationships require intentional effort to flourish, coaches can’t leave them to chance

We may enjoy music of the past but we must not accept practices of the past.

@GramophoneMag do better please. This article needs taking down and rewriting and the author needs to be sent on EDI training.

And those in the industry complaining that the elitism argument of classical music continues…this type of thing is the reason.

Nic is a friend of mine too. She was misdiagnosed and now has stage 4 cancer. Please consider donating so she has a chance at a curative treatment https://t.co/YD3GjvAdKM

[Dr Kirsten🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦 💙 🕷 @drkirstenw]

Just for anyone out there. My friend Nicola is a beautiful, humble lady, a mum, a wife, a daughter and a sister. I'm proud that she is my friend - I don't deserve it. She has stage 4 cancer. Please consider donating for treatment the UK can't offer
