- The first book to explore the cultural psychology of music education, providing unique and valuable insights for music educators and music psychologists
- A team of expert researchers demonstrate how this approach can be applied to a range of issues in music education
- Examines how culture plays a role in shaping musical thought and activity for students and teachers as they engage in music learning and teaching processes
Recent studies in music education have investigated the ways in which different groups construe music and music education, and the ways in which these constructions are culturally bound.
A Cultural Psychology of Music Education explores the ways in which the discipline of cultural psychology can contribute to our understanding of how music learning and development occurs in a range of cultural settings, and the subsequent implications of such understanding for the theory and practice of music education.
The book opens with an
overview of the theoretical underpinnings of a cultural psychology of music education. Ten eminent music education scholars and researchers provide chapters that illustrate the application of this approach to key issues in music education; its theory and practice. These chapters provide opportunities to look more deeply into the practices of music education in order to understand the role culture plays in shaping children's musical learning and thinking, the learning and teaching of music teachers, the formal and informal institutions and structures within and through which learning and teaching occur, and, the intersection of these processes and structures in the development of musical thought and practice.
As the first major publication to explore a cultural
psychology of music education, this volume signals new directions for the study of music educational theory and practice, and the continuing transformation of the discipline. It draws together a number of music education researchers working within a cultural psychology framework establishing a basic reference in this developing field. A fascinating subject, this volume will be of interest to music educators, students and researchers of music education, and music psychologists.Readership: Music educators/music education researchers, and music psychologists
