Conference Paper: Hong Kong Popular Music Education Reconsidered
| Title | Hong Kong Popular Music Education Reconsidered |
|---|---|
| Authors | |
| Issue Date | 3-Jan-2022 |
| Abstract | During the past two decades, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region has been trying to develop its creative industries. This paper focuses on popular music education in Hong Kong, which could be an effective way to promote Hong Kong popular music which is generally agreed to be declining in the new millennium. A mixed method design, involving semi-structured interviews with 10 music industry stakeholders, 16 focus group interviews with participants in various popular music education programmes, and a questionnaire survey were conducted between Summer and Winter 2021 to explore possible policies to promote popular music via education. This paper argues that it is necessary to turn from the individualistic “lone genius” model of creative talents to a holistic model of inspiring creativity through research-based knowledge transfer. The research findings will hopefully shed light on how to draft policies to promote popular music through its education for the future. |
