Abstract

The aim of this study is to show how sacred music supports education towards and for peace. The theoretical framework for reflection includes the concepts of cognitive, social, and emotional learning as proposed by Knud Illeris (2006), as well as religious pedagogy in the approach of Zbigniew Marek (2022). The adoption of these concepts in reflecting on education towards and for peace through sacred music is justified, as they refer to the same dimensions of learning and development that are influenced by music. The search for connections between peace, education, and sacred music is conducted from a Christian perspective, which requires reference to the biblical understanding of the term peace – specifically the Hebrew shalom and the Greek eirēnē.
