Recenzje

This book takes readers to children's musical beginnings, and to the seeding of their musical identities. It is well-conceived, compelling, and consciously attentive to the realities of music's presence in children's lives at home and in the family. Lisa Koops brings experience and ethnographic styling into focus, and offers new insights on the meaningful roles that parents play in nurturing their children's musical development. A resonant study of human musicality in the everyday lives of families, this work is essential reading for parents, teachers, and care-givers who claim to support their children's expressive social-emotional growth.
