Opis

In recent years, empathy has received considerable research attention as a means of understanding a range of psychological phenomena. Music and Empathy seeks to promote and stimulate further research, exposing current developmental, cognitive, social and philosophical perspectives, and considers the notion in relation to our engagement with different types of music and media. Following a Prologue, the volume presents twelve chapters in two main areas of enquiry, entitled ’Empathy and Musical Engagement’ and ’Empathy in Performing Together’, and will be of interest to music educators, musicologists, performers and practitioners, as well as scholars with an interest in empathy research.
