What is
RAPP Lab?

RAPP Lab was a three-year EU-funded research project supported by the ERASMUS+ programme "Strategic Partnerships". RAPP stands for "Reflection based Artistic Professional Practice" and the project has been taken forward through a series of multi-national encounters described as Labs

RAPP Lab explored how the reflective methodologies of artistic research empower musicians to creatively respond to the economic-cultural environment with which they are confronted. The project brought together the artistic research expertise of seven partner institutions in six different European states:

Association Européenne des Conservatoires – AEC  Bruxelles, Belgium

Conservatorio di Musica Santa Cecilia  Rome, Italy

Eesti Muusika- ja Teatriakadeemia  Tallinn, Estonia

Hochschule für Musik und Tanz  Cologne, Germany (as Coordinator)

mdw – Universität für Musik und Darstellende Kunst  Vienna, Austria

Norges musikkhøgskole, NMH  Oslo, Norway

Orpheus Instituut  Ghent, Belgium

These six Labs all over the continent run between 2021 and 2023:

Symposium in Cologne

05-13-2023 –

With a great success we finished our symposium "Reflect & React. How Artistic Research Empowers Musicians and Performing Artists at Higher Education Institutions" May 12-13 at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln. Together with our partner "React" we not only presented and discussed the final outcomes of RAPP Lab, but we also presented an inside view in working with the LoLa-Technique, and gave young artistic researchers the possibility to exchange about their research questions and demands. The whole programme can be found here.
