#1 The Joensuu Rhythmic Music Degree programme: reasons to keep it2011-12-11 12:43The strength of the Finnish music scene, not just within the country but well known abroad, results from its network of such music courses around the country. Joensuu is not only in the heartland of Finnish runo-song tradition, it has an unusually active and creative live music scene, music of all kinds, springing largely from its student population. Removing the Rhythmic Music degree programme, as planned by the PKAMK authorities even though the Finnish government approves of its continuation, will inevitably much diminish this musical activity, and probably remove Joensuu's rising reputation as a musical hotbed. Coupled with the closure of non-classical courses at other institutions around the country, it will tend to concentrate such music education and stimulation in Helsinki, and thus not reach out to the talents of the population spread across the regions of smaller population across Finland. The Nordic countries are distinguished by their attention to keeping communities spread across their large land areas alive and active, and this has a great effect on their national ethos and quality of life. Closing down the programme at Joensuu is directly contrary to that. |

#22011-12-11 17:31the study of music has unique properties, in both helping us to link with our own roots and heritage, and also to share and learn from other cultures. This course is helping both preserve and deepen the understanding of a unique heritage, and enabling students to engage with the wider world. DAVE |

#3 Joensuun amk pop-jazz musiikkikoulutuksen puolesta2011-12-11 21:21Joensuun ammattikorkeakoululla on opetustarjonnassaan helmi: Pop-jazz musiikkikoulutus. Kun Joensuu ympäristöineen on muuttotappioaluetta ja kärsii työttömyydestä, tulisi ammattikorkeakoulun kaikin voimin pitää kiinni siitä musiikki- ja muidenkin luovien alojen, koulutuksesta mikä sillä on. Kuten kaikki tiedämme, opetusalojen yksipuolistaminen köyhdyttää kaikkien alueella asuvien ja opiskelevien elämää. Joensuun ammattikorkeakoulun vetovoimaisuus ei lisäänny sillä, että musiikki vaiennetaan ja tekniikkaa lisätään; päin vastoin. Joensuussa opiskelevat tulevat ammattimuusikot rikastuttavat koko alueen elämää. Jos Suomessa koulutetaan määrällisesti liikaa musiikkialan ammattilaisia, on tärkeää huolehtia siitä, että juuri Joensuu pitää kiinni koulutuksestaan. Näin voitaisiin säilyttää jonkinmoinen alueellinen tasa-arvoisuus musiikkikoulutuksen suhteen. Olisi varsin näköalatonta katkaista se suoni, joka tuo alueelle sitä rikkautta, joka tutkimustenkin mukaan tuo laatua ja sisältöä teknikonkin elämään. |

#6 Musiikin koulutus tärkeää koko maakunnalle2011-12-15 11:47Musiikin koulutus on tärkeää koko maakunnalle. Näin taataan esimerkiksi maaseudun lapsille mahdollisuus musiikin harrastamiseen, sillä jos Joensuussa ei ole koulutusta, ei musiikkiopistoille ja kansalaisopistoille ole opettajia. Musiikin harrastusmahdollisuus on monelle pienelle paikkakunnalle todella hyvä, esim. Rääkkylässä on todella vähän muita (sähly ja 4H)harrastusmahdollisuuksia. Kun lapset saa ujutettua musiikin maailmaan ja harrastamaan sitä, niin kaveripiiri muodostuu samanhenkisistä ihmisistä ja vapaa-aika kuluu muualla kuin pahanteossa kylänraitilla! |

#72011-12-18 23:52I feel this act of bureaucracy(to close the music program)is a by-product of the current global business-greed trend.I would not hesitate to take this to a higher level and organize an actual "show of discontent"..in other words..a march of protest!! |
