The bağlama is the most important stringed instrument in Turkish music. Since 2015, the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg has offered a bachelor's degree course in Global Music (formerly World Music) with the bağlama as a major subject, and the Mannheim University of Music also offers a bachelor's degree course in teaching music at grammar schools with the bağlama as a major subject. Since 2012, the bağlama has been one of the instruments in the “Jugend musiziert” competition in Baden-Württemberg, in which the Mannheim Music School also takes part with its own bağlama ensemble.
Further cooperation partners of the symposium are the Baden-Württemberg State Music Council and the Oriental Music Academy Mannheim. The event is funded by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts.About the Oriental Music Academy: https://orientalischemusikakademie.de/
