15 minutes about Bilingualism and Music

Kurzfassung/Abstract

Neurocognitive studies point to the similarities between music and language processing. Also, research indicates that parents play an essential role in their children’s musical and language development. So, do you think parents could support their bilingual children’s language skills through songs and music education? What are Turkish-German parents’ experiences in this regard? This talk will give you an insight about everyday-life experiences of families and make connections with the existing research.
