Stories of Being Musically Educated – we all have one! As an impetus to thinking about our own contributions to music education, this presentation encourages attendees to reflect upon the stories of music teachers and music students who come together within the experience of music education. The narratives derived opens opportunity for us to view the experience of music education not simply as a subject to be taught and learned but through a comprehension of student and teacher experience of the experiences of music education and who they become within this situation. Looking to the future, we are provided an opportunity to reflect, rethink, reimagine our approach to music education.
