This book offers a provocative sociological examination of
masculinity, class and music education within the context of a
unique and fascinating culture: the classical musical world of
choirboys. The myriad cultural meanings embodied in the 'boy voice'
are unravelled through compelling musical narratives of young
choirboys, their mothers, and their teachers. The book investigates
how boys negotiate dominant gender-class discourses and the various
pedagogies involved in producing middle-class masculinities during
primary school and early years contexts. Drawing on the theoretical
resources of Bourdieu to develop the concept of 'musical habitus',
the continued symbolic distinction of the choirboy is analysed in
order to better understand how culture is simultaneously reproduced
and evolving through music. This interdisciplinary work at the
juncture of pedagogy and culture will appeal to social science
researchers, educators and arts practitioners interested in the
sociocultural dynamics of music.
