商品簡介
For music educators in schools and colleges, instrumental teachers, and others who teach music, Swanwick (music education, U. of London, UK) offers an account of the nature of the musical experience and the implications of this perspective for educators. He discusses principles that may inform the process of music education in any social or pedagogical setting, emphasizing music as a form of human discourse, the contribution that students bring, and the promotion of musical fluency. Then he explains how these principles can assist in developing teaching strategies and evaluation. He discusses the metaphorical significance and value of music, the social dimension of musical discourse, and the relationship of institutionalized music education to informal music activities in the wider community. This revised edition has a new preface exploring what has changed since the first edition and the future of the field. Annotation c2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
