What is the future of music education?<br />
New!<br />
A team of leaders in the music education profession gathered a series of<br />
events over two years, a worthy successor of the famous Tanglewood symposium of<br />
1967. This remarkable book is the culmination of their efforts.<br />
Tanglewood II not only stimulates the profession to examine where this great<br />
adventure of music learning is headed—this book also provokes a re-evaluation of<br />
present programs and philosophies, tired methodologies, and reinvigorates the role<br />
music educators play in the lives of their students.<br />
The contributors explore the great questions: Why music? What does music communicate?<br />
What is the relationship between music education and democracy? What<br />
should be the impact of world music?<br />
What is the latest research about nature vs. nurture and its impact on music<br />
learning? How does the child/teacher relationship affect learning? How does technology<br />
impact music learning, and what are the implications of future technologies? Are<br />
we recruiting and properly training the right individuals to teach music?<br />
As Wynton Marsalis states in the introduction: “Have you ever looked around<br />
for your front door key, searching everywhere, and finally look down and it’s in your<br />
hand? We only need to look in our hands to find the key for which we’ve been searching.”<br />
Tanglewood II will help us all unlock that front door.<br />
