Both undergraduate and postgraduate students of the music education seminar in the Faculty of Education at Hirosaki University have been developing teaching materials focusing on creative music making for children (including students from elementary, junior and senior high and special needs schools).

The following is a selection of works created and performed between 2017 and 2023.
