Opis

Music Across the Senses provides music educators with practical ideas for facilitating student music listening skill development. Written both for in-service and pre-service music educators, the book shows how to facilitate PK-12 students' listening skills using multisensory means in general music and performance ensemble classes.

As a whole, Music Across the Senses helps teachers enable students to learn how to devise independent strategies for listening that they can employ and enjoy both now and throughout their lives.

Recenzje

A sound pedagogical approach with much wisdom for those of us who use our ears for a living and who wish to inspire our students to use thiers in the choral arts.
