Spano 6 Foreword It was in October 2016, when I first received an email from a very good friend and colleague, Patricia Gonzales, proposing me the possibility to organize the 57th International Society for Music Education (ISME) Research Commission (RC) Seminar in the Canadian University Dubai, United Arab Emirates. I must admit that I was quite hesitant to do so in the very beginning. Not because I did not have the experience of organizing similar events; rather I was feeling that music and music education were fairly both absent as conference - not to mention academic - fields in the UAE up to that moment. Moreover, as I was a newcomer in Dubai at that time, I was not quite sure how I could handle both the administration as well as the academic outreach of such an important, high caliber and surely demanding event in this new for me working and academic framework. Indeed, it was the RC Chair, Evelyn Orman a few days later, showcasing a lot of support in our very first email correspondence, who persuaded me to accept this project; a project which finally reached to be what could be seen later on as a very distinctive event for both ISME and the Canadian University Dubai. A truly diversified content of research was exposed in the 57th ISME RC seminar in Dubai, bringing some remarkable knowledge under the international music education spotlight. In the aftermath of the proceedings it seems to me that the seminar successfully managed to analyze the general situation and existing problems of music education and its creative research initiatives across the globe; it introduced advanced experiences in the ever expanding multicultural contexts of our times; it undeniably helped for the exchange of ideas on cutting-edge theories and major practices of music making and music education, while it also proposed many constructive frameworks on improved, more efficient, more balanced and more sustainable practices in the music education context. Most importantly however, it should be noted that the RC seminar in Dubai, not only stretched international collaborations and networking as it was supposed to do in the first place, but it gloriously planted the seeds for music education research to officially start existing as a domain to this very welcoming for the field eastern part of the world, too. Such an achievement was confirmed in two ways: (a) the full acceptance and support the event enjoyed by the local authorities - The Canadian University Dubai, the Dubai Tourism and Dubai Business Events; and (b) by the fact that for the first time in ISME’s existing history, three U.A.E. based members were officially registered under the ISME’s membership; a great win for the Arab and the rest of the music education world.
