Yared School of Music
Overview and Establishment
Music is an important aspect of life and culture. It is a significant means of expressing and interpreting human experience, which involves the whole person: physical, mental, spiritual and social. Music education is one of the many means, which human beings have created, for building a society where the harmonious blending of the physical, spiritual and mental makes all members of the society equal. However, this demands the conscious learning of a wide range of materials and skills which cannot be acquired by the individual in the normal process of enculturation.
The first higher institution of music in Ethiopia was founded in 1954 by the then Ministry of Education & Fine Arts as a full-fledged state-owned learning center for music training in the country. Its former name, the National School of Music was officially changed to Yared School of Music in 1969. The school was administered by different government bodies until 1999, when Addis Ababa University took over the administration, and its program was upgraded to a Bachelor of Arts degree level.
The national demand of enhancing quality education in higher learning institutions of Ethiopia called for revisiting the existing curriculum in order to shape it for the purpose o producing competent citizens. Among the various efforts of the Ministry of Education (MoE) to provide quality education, the modularization of curricula in Ethiopian higher leaning institutions has been the prime concern. As a result, it was officially declared that all higher education institutions in Ethiopia were required to develop a competence based modular curricula for all programs. Thus, a thorough revision of the existing curriculum was made and a nationally harmonized modular curriculum was put in place by a team of music department professionals drawn from Addis Ababa and Wollo Universities in August 2013.
