This book examines how music education presents opportunities to
shape democratic awareness through political, pedagogical, and
humanistic perspectives. Focusing on democracy as a vital dimension
in teaching music, the essays in this volume have particular
relevance to teaching music as democratic practice in both public
schooling and in teacher education. Although music educators have
much to learn from others in the educational field, the actual
teaching of music involves social and political dimensions unique
to the arts. In addition, teaching music as democratic practice
demands a pedagogical foundation not often examined in the general
teacher education community. Essays include the teaching of the
arts as a critical response to democratic participation; exploring
democracy in the music classroom with such issues as safe spaces,
sexual orientation, music of the Holocaust, improvisation, race and
technology; and music teaching/music teacher education as a form of
social justice. Engaging with current scholarship, the book not
only probes the philosophical nature of music and democracy, but
also presents ways of democratizing music curriculum and human
interactions within the classroom. This volume offers the
collective wisdom of international scholars, teachers, and teacher
educators and will be essential reading for those who teach music
as a vital force for change and social justice in both local and
global contexts.
