Moving back through Dewey, Heidegger, Nietzsche, and Rousseau, the
lineage of Western music education finds its origins in Plato and
Pythagoras. Yet theories not rooted in the ancient Greek tradition
are all but absent. A Way of Music Education provides a much-needed
intervention, integrating ancient Chinese thought into the canon of
music education in a structured, systematized, and philosophical
way. The book's three central sources - the Yijing (The Book of
Changes), Confucianism, and Daoism - inform author C. Victor Fung's
argument: that the human being exists as an entity at the center of
an organismic world in which all things and events, including music
and music education, are connected. Fung ultimately proposes a new
educational philosophy based on three key ideas in Chinese thought:
change, balance, and liberation. A unique work, A Way of Music
Education offers a universal approach engrained in a specific and
ancient cultural tradition.
