Description
Music education in Canada is a vast enterprise that encompasses teaching and learning in thousands of public and private schools, community groups, and colleges and universities.
It involves participants from infancy to the elderly in formal and informal settings.
Nevertheless, as post-secondary faculties of music and programs are growing significantly, academic books and materials grounded in a Canadian perspective are scarce.
This book attempts to fill that need by offering a collection of essays that look critically at various global issues in music education from a Canadian perspective.
Topics range from a discussion of the roots of music education in Canada and analysis of music education practices across the country to perspectives on popular music, distance education, technology, gender, globalization, Indigenous traditions, and community music in music education.
Foreword by composer R. Murray Schafer.
