Grete Daling

Grete Daling is a Senior Lecturer at Nord University's Faculty of Education and Arts and a University Lecturer at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology's Department of Music. She holds a 3-year diploma from CVI and leads multiple community music initiatives, including the choir A Cappellissimo and therapeutic singing courses.

Her research bridges music, health, and education, with emphases on:

• Choral singing as therapy for mental health recovery
• Yoik (Sami traditional singing) in pedagogy and multicultural care
• Community-based music interventions for vulnerable groups
• Innovative methodologies like music-based environmental treatment

Recent publications (2022-2024) demonstrate strong trends in applied ethnomusicology and clinical music therapy, particularly exploring how vocal traditions like yoik and group singing foster resilience, cultural preservation, and psychosocial well-being. Her work frequently involves interdisciplinary collaboration and community partnerships.

She contributes to projects including Syng deg friskere (Dam Foundation-funded) and the ongoing mustXchange teacher education initiative. No formal research lab is mentioned, but she directs the choir A Cappellissimo and community singing programs.
