Editorial
Preface and brief history of the CFMAE journal
Dear readers, dear colleagues. This 12th volume of the CFMAE Journal is issued after a small break. This is a remarkable sign of the viability of the CFMAE Journal. Therefore it makes sense to look back to the starting years and the development over the past decade in order to thank all contributors.
The idea to develop such a journal was born with the big international conferences “The Changing Face of Music Education” (CFME) organized by Tallinn University Institute of Fine Arts Department of Music in 2004 and 2009. I hereby thank the director and head of the music department at this time, Andres Avarand, who believed in us and supported our endeavor. But, just conference publications (abstract and proceedings books) where not sufficient enough. The necessity appeared to treat the themes discussed at the conferences more in depth in longer articles – especially because access of authors from former Eastern Europe countries to international journals was complicated because of language difficulties, different research traditions and methods as well as some kind of prejudices in this respect. However, doctoral students and researchers needed a place to issue their work.
For a small one-million people country such a music and arts journal, especially in English, was a luxury. The only chance was to work together with our neighbors with the aim to create a bridge between Baltic and Nordic states’ universities as well as between German and English research traditions, to find common topics and establish contacts between researchers. I want to thank the international members of our editorial board John A. Sloboda, Graham F. Welch, Nigel Marshall, Stefanie Stadler Elmer, Raymond MacDonald, Paul E. Beaudoin for helping us to achieve and keep this intercultural vision. Special thanks go to the board members and reviewers from our neighbor countries Inkeri Ruokonen, Antti Juvonen, Heiki Ruismäki (Finland), Jelena Davidova (Latvia), Rūta Girdzijauskienė (Lithuania) for their immense contributions through the years. Their support and understanding remained also in difficult times.
Both the continuing conferences and the journal developed further with an interdisciplinary scope – the name was enlarged with the word Art into CFMAE: The Changing Face of Music and Art Education. This enabled us to include topics from dance, fine arts and craft as well as music pedagogy-related fields like psychology, sociology, digital creativity etc. This also caused the need to harmonize the volumes thematically: Creativity, Musicality, Well-Being (2012 Vol 4/1, 4/2), Inspiration and Improvisation (2013 Vol 5/1, 5/2), Communication and Processes (2014 Vol 6/1, 6/2), MERYC: Playful Sounds – Personhood (2015 Vol 5/1, 5/2, 2016 Vol 6), Singing & Voice Special Issue (2017). In 2018 a special Volume “10-year anniversary of CFMAE Journal” was issued.
Since 2013 our abstracts are listed in the EBSCO Academic Search and Discovery databases, the electronic versions of the articles are available since 2015 in RILM Full Text database. We thank both organizations for trusting us, and their flexibility and understanding. Since 2020 the journal must become an open access (OA) online journal due to international and Estonian state regulations.
Over the years our authors have been from a wider range of countries, languages and origin then earlier intended – Japanese, Saami, Hungarian, Moldavian, Serbian, Austrian, German, Scottish, Swiss, Czech, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, Finnish, Estonian, English, American, Canadian, French etc. This caused also the need to extend the members of the reviewers board, also because the fields and the research have become more and more interdisciplinary. This voluntary work (beside their main employment duties) was done among other by the following colleagues: Nora Lūse, Jelena Davidova, Aleksandra Slahova, Ieva Vizule (Latvia), Rūta Girdzijauskienė (Lithuania), Dominik Šedivy (Austria), Stefanie Stadler Elmer (Switzerland), Dora Psaltopoulou-Kamini, Nikolaos Zafranas (Greece), Keith Swanwick, Nigel Marshall, Alison Daubney, Adam Ockelford, Jessica Pitt (UK), Motje Wolf (UK/Germany), Paul Beaudoin (USA/Estonia), Pozzi Escot, Robert Cogan, Patrick K. Freer, Uladzimir Slabin (USA), Graça Boal Palheiros (Portugal), Ragnhild Eller (Germany), Christian Fischer (Estonia/Germany), Matti Vainio, Jukka Louhivuori, Antti Juvonen, Inkeri Ruokonen, Heikki Ruismäki, Mikko Anttila, Francis Kiernan (Finland), David Yoken (Finland/USA), Leith Symington (Norway), David Carey (Ireland), Gary McPherson (Australia), Anna Rita Addessi, Matteo Riccardi (Italy), Iivi Zajedova (Czech Republic/Estonia), Jaan Ross, Kerri Kotta, Allan Vurma, Vaike Kiik-Salupere, Heie Treier, Edna Vahter (Estonia). Thank you for your enthusiastic support, contribution and in-time response.
I am very thankful to the graphic designer Maite-M. Kotta who’s design of a combined semiquaver and open book has been our logo and visual brand right from the start that is still fresh but enables additional elements and texts for special issues. The layout of the whole journal has been done through the years with dutifulness and accuracy by Ludmilla Krusta and Põltsmaa Printing House (Estonia). Of big help have been the following colleagues – Kerri Kotta, Marit Mõistlik-Tamm, Vaike Kiik Salupere and Heddi Reinsalu.
A special thanks goes to the managing editor of the journal, Gerhard Lock, who’s huge enthusiasm and work contribution also in complicated times of reorganization of university structures has been remarkably high. His careful and demanding eyes have seen all articles and he as been able to solve many issuing-related problems. I am glad to announce that the issuing of the journal continues from 2021 under his attentive eyes as editor-in-chief and with new colleagues.
We are also very thankful to the several sponsors the Journal had in the past decade: Tallinn University Research Fund (2013–2016), EuNetMERYC network (Music Educators and Researchers of Young Children) (2015), and Tallinn University Baltic Film, Media and Arts School (BFM) MEDIT (The Centre of Excellence in Media Innovation and Digital Culture) over the last years.
I thank all authors for sharing their interesting research over the past decades. I believe that these articles have broadened not only my but also a lot of readers’ minds. I am thankful to all of you for the work and wish the new editors many new and interesting authors and articles.
