Growing Musicians: Teaching Music in Middle School and Beyond
focuses on teaching adolescents within the context of a music
classroom, regardless of content area (orchestra, band, choir, or
general music). It provides a look at the importance of music
courses in the lives of adolescents as they navigate the path
between being a child and an adult. As every music student is
completely unique, there is no one-size-fits-all prescriptive way
of working with this age group. Rather, music educators must
approach adolescents with high musical standards and aspirations to
learn and achieve within music; a willingness to honor the
individuality of each adolescent musician; a sense of structure,
but an ability to be flexible; a desire to foster and promote a
safe classroom environment where students feel empowered to be
themselves and speak openly about what they think and believe; an
understanding that music classes are not only safe places where
students learn how to become better musicians but also better
people through musical experiences focused on humanity and empathy;
and a dose of humor, or at least the ability to acknowledge that
adolescents are extremely funny whether or not they realize it. In
addition, this book encourages pre-service and practicing music
educators to mindfully examine and better understand their own
teaching practices.
