「音樂與文化可持續性」副修課程
為致力提升音樂素養和美學鑑賞，此副修課程培養目標在於探究如何在不同文化背景下保育和推廣音樂遺產，重點關注藝術與自然和文化環境之間的動態互動，促進與業界人士的對話，並強調跨代之間的文化傳播，以確保豐富多彩的傳統得以在快速變化的世界中延續發展。
與此同時，我們也十分重視音樂性的普世潛力，並強調音樂在社會心靈幸福方面的治療作用。通過培養學生的創意思維和音樂溝通能力，我們希望建立一個可持續發展的社群，並以跨文化、跨藝術形式的手段爲其賦予豐富内涵。

Cultural sustainability emphasizes on a forward-looking perspective on heritage. Beyond enhancing music literacy and encouraging aesthetics appreciation of diverse art genres and styles, we work to re-explore links between arts and the natural and cultural environment, to open up new dialogues with practitioners, and to bring preservation in action with intergenerational cultural transmission practices. We also aim to stress that everyone can be musical regardless of abilities and experiences. The notion of well-being in arts includes therapeutic function of music in socio-psychological aspects. Through nurturing students’ creative thinking, we introduce communicative musicality with intercultural expressions across art forms that build towards a sustainable community for collective well-being.
