Within Rotterdam Conservatory, the outcomes of the discussions about methodology will be directly applied the renewed formulating of a flexible modular curriculum that better justifies the cultural diversity of the institution and its surroundings. The outcomes of the discussions about transcultural approaches to music history will be taken into account in the forming of a new course for all students about music from a world perspective.

Worlds of Music has brought a number of organisations in the field of cultural diversity in music in Rotterdam closer together, such as Dunya (festival and concerts), Calypso (theatre), de Doelen (concert hall), Wereldmuseum, RKS (arts council), Phenix Foundation, SKVR Music School, Rotterdam Conservatory and Mplex.

The opening of Worlds of Music was also the first public presentation of the idea of a world music centre in Rotterdam; an urban performing arts campus, dedicated to the education, creation and presentation of the cultural richness of Rotterdam. With the availability of a suitable location for this initiative in the area Delftshaven, the physical, organisational, artistic, political and financial viability of this grand projet have clearly come closer.

Worlds of Music has led to expansion of and new impulse for the informal network Cultural Diversity in Music Education. It is likely that a working group co-ordinated by the research department of Rotterdam Conservatory will start formulating, realising and distributing a ‘transcultural music history’, possibly in co-operation with organisations such as UNESCO.
