Summary:

Calls for reform have resounded for decades within music education, but few publications have offered concrete proposals of how things might be done differently. College Music Curricula for a New Century does Just that, as editor Robin D. Moore orchestrates a dialogue among faculty, administrators, and students about what the future of college music instruction should be and how teachers, institutions, and organizations can transition to new paradigms. With contributions from leading figures in ethnomustcology, music education, theory, professional performance, and administration, College Musk Curricula for a New Century focuses on performance and music education degrees, offering ideas and examples for a more inclusive, dynamic, and socially engaged curriculum of applied musical study. This book will appeal to faculty in need of direction on how to enact reform, graduate students invested in shaping future music curricula, and administrators who see change on the horizon and seek wisdom and practical advice for its successful implementation. Reaching far beyond any single musical subdiscipline, College Music Curricula for a New Century addresses issues pertinent to all areas of musk study. Book jacket.
