Project Description:
Jugend musiziert is a highly prestigious and competitive youth music competition in Germany; it is the starting point for practically all ongoing professional musicians. It takes place on a district, regional and national level.For the last two years, the two Bundesländer of Berlin and North Rhine-Westphalia have tentatively introduced anew category, the Turkish baglama (a long-necked lute). This is seen as a measure to recognise the changingdemographic composition of the German population, especially in these two Bundesländer . The development ofcompetition rules for the baglama in accordance with the general rules of Jugend musiziert proved to be a quitecomplicated process. It required an intensive dialogue between experts from the German Music Council andexperts of Turkish classical music. The inclusion of the baglama was not just the acceptance of a newinstrumental subject, but also the inclusion of a totally different set of rules of playing music.
Lessons to be Learned:The inclusion of an instrument played by members of an immigrant community in a "high culture" event like Jugend musiziert is of very significant symbolic value, indicating a change in the mainstream culture and firststeps towards the acceptance of elements of immigrant cultures as an integral part of culture in Germany.
Target Groups:
Talented young musicians particularly from the Turkish community in Germany
