From 2–7 February, Conservatoire de Paris hosted the Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) Creating and Producing Immersive Music and Sound for Live Performance, developed and delivered within IN.TUNE as one of sixteen new joint educational formats. 

IN.TUNE was presented as a practical example of a European University Alliance in the field of music and the arts during the international workshop Project Funding Opportunities, Erasmus+ Mobility and Digitisation: Practical Tools for the Internationalisation of Higher Music Education Institutions, held on 29–31 January 2026 in Brescia, Italy. Hosted by Conservatorio di Musica “Luca Marenzio” and organised in cooperation with the Association of European Conservatoires (AEC), the event brought together professionals from across Europe to strengthen understanding of the European funding opportunities among international relations officers and other staff interested in internationalisation of higher music education institutions.

After a successful meeting of the Heads of Vocal Departments in November, the Royal Conservatoire The Hague hosted an in-person meeting of Heads of Early Music Departments and equivalent representatives from across the IN.TUNE Alliance. Eight colleagues from partner institutions came together on 23-24 January 2026 to exchange perspectives, explore shared challenges, and lay the foundations for future collaboration in early music education. 

Ever wondered what it would be like to spend part of your studies at another IN.TUNE institution? Whether you are looking for a semester abroad, a different mobility experience, or simply want to understand what options exist, our January 2026 online information sessions are designed to help you take the next step.

Across the month, IN.TUNE will host a series of short, focused digital meetings that introduce mobility opportunities for students at each alliance partner institution. Each session is hosted by one institution, so you can join the ones that match your interests, your subject area, or the country you are curious about.

These sessions are open to students from all IN.TUNE partner institutions.

At the 2025 AEC Annual Congress in Salzburg, IN.TUNE brought together leaders and students from all eight partner universities to show how long-term international cooperation can actively transform higher music education institutions. The panel offered a candid look at how institutions are navigating alliance developments — celebrating progress, addressing challenges, and leading change with purpose. It also highlighted what makes IN.TUNE’s approach distinct compared to other international initiatives, and how AEC members and other institutions in the sector can draw practical inspiration from the alliance’s emerging experiences.
