Recenzje

'Contributors include leading names in music education and the wealth of experience is reflected in the ease with which they give succinct, lucid overviews of theoretical issues and relate them to the practicalities of life in the classroom. Discussion and presentation tasks within each chapter ensure that readers are actively involved and forced to examine their own thinking ... Well worth reading and would make a useful addition to any music department bookshelf.' – Aelwyn Pugh, Times Educational Supplement
