In recent years, empathy has received considerable research
attention as a means of understanding a range of psychological
phenomena, and it is fast drawing attention within the fields of
music psychology and music education. This volume seeks to promote
and stimulate further research in music and empathy, with
contributions from many of the leading scholars in the fields of
music psychology, neuroscience, music philosophy and education. It
exposes current developmental, cognitive, social and philosophical
perspectives on research in music and empathy, and considers the
notion in relation to our engagement with different types of music
and media. Following a Prologue, the volume presents twelve
chapters organised into two main areas of enquiry. The first
section, entitled 'Empathy and Musical Engagement', explores
empathy in music education and therapy settings, and provides
social, cognitive and philosophical perspectives about empathy in
relation to our interaction with music. The second section,
entitled 'Empathy in Performing Together', provides insights into
the role of empathy across non-Western, classical, jazz and popular
performance domains. This book will be of interest to music
educators, musicologists, performers and practitioners, as well as
scholars from other disciplines with an interest in empathy
research.
