Abstract
I am certain, first, that to take part in a music act is of central importance to our very humanness, as important as taking part in the act of speech [...] and that everyone, every normally endowed human being is born with the gift of music no less than with the gift of speech.' Christopher Small, 1998 Dear LME 2011 Participant, Welcome to London, to the University of Western Ontario and to the Leading Music Education Conference 2011.I would imagine that the vast majority of us are here because we share a common passion.At some time someone or something ignited the spark within us that has grown and become our love of music.We understand Christopher Small's view above that as humans we need musical expression.In fact, this assertion comes not only from the field of music.Anthropologist Stephen Mithen ( 2005) in his wonderful book The Singing Neanderthals goes so far as to suggest that music is hard wired into the human genome.We know that music plays important roles in shaping identity and community, in promoting personal growth, health and wellness, and in raising our consciousness with respect to social and other problems throughout the lifespan.Humanity needs these things now more than ever.The role of those acting as music leaders has therefore never been so important.We gather here to ask the following questions: what is the nature of effective music leadership in the 21st century?How can we best enable rewarding musicking for people of all ages?How can we promote awareness of music's centrality in contemporary society and culture and how can we bring more attention to the important role music leaders play therein?This conference has assembled leaders from the arts in studios, performance spaces, community music groups, schools, academia, and the research community from around the world to discuss how best to meet the challenges of the day.Leading-edge ideas may surface here to become the cornerstones of action plans and programs that help to extend rewarding music making to ever increasing numbers.What will make this conference an exceptional and unique experience are the ideas, insights, and practical solutions that you bring to it.We come from many parts of the world, speak many languages, and seek solutions to many different problems.But we are united in one common goal -to work out together how to extend the benefits of meaningful, rewarding music making to as many people around the world as possible from the cradle to the grave.I look forward to welcoming each and every one of you personally to LME and to spending time talking to you.In the meantime, on behalf of the LME conference committee and our sponsors, I wish you the very best and again, thank you for being here with us.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
