The Routledge Handbook to Sociology of Music Education
Author: Ruth Wright
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429997493
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 512
Book Description
The Routledge Handbook to Sociology of Music Education is a comprehensive, authoritative and state-of-the-art review of current research in the field. The opening introduction orients the reader to the field, highlights recent developments, and draws together concepts and research methods to be covered. The chapters that follow are written by respected, experienced experts on key issues in their area of specialisation. From separate beginnings in the United States, Europe, and the United Kingdom in the mid-twentieth century, the field of the sociology of music education has and continues to experience rapid and global development. It could be argued that this Handbook marks its coming of age. The Handbook is dedicated to the exclusive and explicit application of sociological constructs and theories to issues such as globalisation, immigration, post-colonialism, inter-generational musicking, socialisation, inclusion, exclusion, hegemony, symbolic violence, and popular culture. Contexts range from formal compulsory schooling to non-formal communal environments to informal music making and listening. The Handbook is aimed at graduate students, researchers and professionals, but will also be a useful text for undergraduate students in music, education, and cultural studies.

An Evaluation of Selection Criteria for Early Band Music
Author: Brandon E. Rutledge

ISBN:
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The purpose of this study was to assess the importance of music selection criteria for middle school band directors and preservice band directors. Middle school band directors and preservice band directors (N = 101) were surveyed to discover how important each group viewed music selection criteria. Participation was limited to middle school directors whose ensembles performed grade II and III band repertoire and preservice band directors currently enrolled in music education programs. Subgroups were formed within the band directors and preservice band to determine whether changes occurred between each group. These groupings allowed the researcher to assess the differences in some areas between the importance of selection criteria for middle school band directors and preservice band directors. A total of six groups were used for comparison to determine whether significant differences existed between the importance of selection criteria for middle school band directors and preservice band directors.

Criteria, Composition, And Compliance
Author: Mark Lortz
Publisher:
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
The purpose of this study was to identify areas of agreement and disagreement between concert band music publisher difficulty grading systems and the perceptions of the band directors who program concert band music. Because no standard difficulty stratification for concert band music exists among publishers, band directors must rely on personal interpretations of diverse grading systems. This may complicate their programming and curriculum decisions. In the study, two questions were addressed: (a) Does a discrepancy exist between performance difficulty levels assigned to literature through publishers' grading systems and concert band directors' perceptions of this music's difficulty level? (b) What criteria do concert band directors use to select music that is at an appropriate performance difficulty level for their concert bands? A sampling of 168 band directors from U.S. schools at the elementary through college levels completed a researcher-designed survey that focused on methods of selecting level-appropriate band literature. They reviewed excerpts from 10 published concert band pieces with a publishers' difficulty level rated from Grade 1 (least difficult) to Grade 6 (most difficult), and offered their perceptions regarding each piece's performance difficulty. Ratings were compared with publishers' assigned difficulty levels. The degree of accord and discord between directors' judgments and publishers' grades were determined and discussed. The results of this study provide a better understanding of the relationship between publishers' grading systems and concert band directors' perceptions of musical difficulty levels. This understanding may assist instrumental music educators with the difficult and important task of band music selection and curriculum planning.
