Nordic Research in Music Education Yearbook has been published since 1997 by the Norwegian Academy of Music. This Volume 18 includes seventeen articles. The themes of the contributions represent a wide variety of interests within the Nordic music education community. The articles “Music, media and technological creativity in the digital age” by Anne Danielsen, and ”Soundscaping the world with digital tools: The future in retrospect” by Göran Folkestad, first were presented as keynotes at the 20th conference of the Nordic Network for Research in Music Education, March 8-10 2016 at Hedmark University College (now: Inland Norway University College of Applied Sciences). The theme for this conference was “Technology and creativity in music education”. The other contributions represent different interests within the community including for instance gender studies, intercultural music practices, musical meaning making, music and body, assessment, practicing, and entrepreneurship. The last section of the Yearbook provides information about Nordic doctoral dissertations in music education from 2016-17, the review panel, and the editorial group.
