Training 1. Visual Thinking Strategies for Music Listening—The communication skill to deepen the music audience's way of "listening"
Why don't we stop running music outreach programs just asking "How did you feel about this piece?" to get only thoughts and comments of the participants?
Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) is the current base of the art education programs organized by institutions including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, USA. We are going to learn the communication style to deepen the music-listening experience for beginners.
So let’s take up this communication technique and make the audience feel the joy and profundity of classical music.

There are a growing need and increasing attention for activities which spotlight the diversity in the arts in recent years.
