Commentary :	The history of music education can be traced back to ancient China, Egypt and Greece. The most important milestone however goes back to Guido of Arezzo who invented methods for reading music, the solmisation. In my presentation I will shortly enumerate these further milestones in backtracking how Guido’s “system” spread over Europe and became an example of European cultural heritage. In the second part of my presentation I will describe the situation of music learning in Germany, Hungary and Luxembourg with a focus on problems and strengths in each system. This will be underpinned by both, quantitative and qualitative arguments.
