Rethinking Music Education with Low-Latency Technology

Original language description

This conference contribution presents the outcomes of a joint initiative by the Janáček Academy of Performing Arts (JAMU) and the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague (AMU), focused on the practical implementation of the low-latency audiovisual technology MVTP (Modular Video Transmission Platform) for synchronous music collaboration within higher music education. The presentation explores the pedagogical applicability and technical feasibility of MVTP in enabling real-time musical interaction between geographically distant participants. Based on three applied case examples—a piano duo, a percussion ensemble, and a jazz improvisation—the contribution demonstrates that, under specific technical conditions, MVTP allows for near-real-time audiovisual communication with imperceptible audio latency and adequate visual feedback. This makes the technology particularly suitable for ensemble-based performance and live remote teaching scenarios where timing and responsiveness are essential. The presentation also addresses key implementation challenges, including system compatibility, coordination between institutions, and the need for standardized operational methodologies. Attention is given to how MVTP can support the development of blended learning formats and virtual mobility frameworks in tertiary-level music training. By showcasing concrete pedagogical outcomes and technical observations, the contribution highlights MVTP as a promising tool for expanding the possibilities of artistic collaboration and education beyond physical boundaries. The findings aim to foster further discussion on the systematic integration of low-latency transmission technologies into the digital infrastructure of music academies and advocate for their strategic adoption in future-oriented educational models.
