Music universities of today have a strong foundation in European classical theory. In the near future, it would be interesting if musical elements and teachings from different cultures were integrated, although this would be unlikely in the next 3-5 years. Music schools of the near future should at least grant students with access to resources that give information on intercultural scales and rhythms, so that they could compare objective, mathematical theory to that of different cultures. I would like to see the definition of music theory become separate from 18th century European harmonic style, because there are many cultural interpretations of music theory that the music students of today are missing out on. I also think that digital music technologies should be a staple of all university music schools, as they allow for a divergence from the rigidity of classical European harmonies and theories. It would be intriguing to see how musical practice would change if teachings in western musical theory were to drift from its classical European origins.
