Research Discipline/Bio
Caroline studied tango music with JJ Mosalini and G Beytelmann, then worked as a tango violinist for 20 years while based in Paris, France and London, UK, performing in festivals, on TV, radio, in more than 15 countries, and toured twice in Argentina. She founded the non-profit Creative Caminito in London in 2022 promoting tango music education in the UK. In 2023 she won a Fulbright scholarship to do her EdD at Teachers College, exploring how to use transmedia storytelling to teach tango music techniques, style and history from decolonial and new materialism perspectives, revealing the aesthetics, creativity and epistemologies inherent within the genre. She has worked as a research assistant for her advisor Dr Patrick Schmidt and won a place on the 2024 SEM Public Ethnomusicology Mentoring Program with Nancy Groce (Library of Congress). She is particularly interested in how storytelling, media, music and (online) education can interact in innovative ways.
