In 2021, CEMPE's student partners initiated a two-day digital seminar on the mental health of musicians and music students.
Psychologist specialist and associate professor of community and organisational psychology Jonas Rennemo Vaag opened the seminar with a clear status report on musicians today, followed by panel discussions and lectures by researchers, athletes, students and former Olympic champions.
The seminar was an important event that brought the field together and put the topic on the agenda.
Musikeren & Psyken
What challenges are commonly encountered in the role of a musician? How can you create a life as a musician that you enjoy and that can last for a long time? And what role should mental health play in musician training programmes?
