American Music Education: The Enigma and the Solution
ISBN: 9781936512898 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Beginning in the mid-twentieth century American music educators began a shift toward teaching "Conceptual" aspects of music for the purpose of accountability in the new science led world. But "Conceptual Music Education" is not music at all and the students know it. The students already love music when they arrive at the school door and they want to make music. Because American Music Education is no longer centered on performance, vast numbers of students go home and teach themselves to sing, compose and play keyboard instruments-all without the supervision of professional musician/educators....

These include broad issues of society, the nature of the musical instruments themselves, acoustics, how the listener's brain "hears" music and...
