The European Association for Music in Schools is a music education network. It brings together all those concerned with music education to share and exchange knowledge and experience in professional fields and to advocate for high quality music education accessible to all.
39 months, 13 partner institutions, 11 countries, countless meetings, exchanges, mobilities, ideas and new connections – and now it is time to say: TEAM has officially come to an end.
On 14 September 2026, the Erasmus+ project Teacher Education Academy for Music (TEAM) reached the end of its official project period. One day later, partners came together online one last time to celebrate what had been achieved and to raise a digital glass to 39 months of collaboration across Europe.
But while the project has officially ended, there is still plenty to discover.
In this interview, Erik Lundahl reflects on his musical background, influences, and approach to music education. He discusses the music that has shaped his artistic thinking, from The Beatles and Erykah Badu to electronic and popular music, and explains how creativity and students’ own musical interests influence his teaching. For Erik, being a teacher comes first, and his approach focuses on helping students develop their creativity while acquiring the musical skills needed to bring their ideas to life.

Schools and educators are invited to start planning their participation now. Whether you organise a local musical activity or join the international online event, EuDaMuS 2027 is a wonderful opportunity to showcase the impact of music in education.
The EAS has extended the application period for National Coordinator positions for 2025–27 – North Macedonia and Ukraine.
EAS National Coordinator: Role Description and responsibilities
The ‘National Coordinators’ (NCs) represent the EAS at national level. They support music education activities and initiatives in their countries, and they communicate these activities at European level. They may cooperate in this with other representatives of the EAS, primarily with the EAS board members and with the NCs of the other countries.
Prepare to join the sixth edition of the European Day of Music in Schools (EuDaMuS 2027) and celebrate the fact that many children and young people in Europe receive music education in their schools.
Through EuDaMuS 2027, we advocate for high-quality music education for all children and young people in Europe and beyond.
Let this message be heard by parents, teachers, school leaders, policymakers, and everyone who should hear it. Become an advocate yourself and help raise public awareness in your school and community.
Tell your colleagues and others in your (online) music education network about this important message and invite them to join the EuDaMuS 2027 celebrations and activities.
