Unlike their colleagues in music theory and music education,
teachers of music history have tended not to commit their
pedagogical ideas to print. This collection of essays seeks to help
redress the balance, providing advice and guidance to those who
teach a college-level music history or music appreciation course,
be they a graduate student setting out on their teaching career, or
a seasoned professor having to teach outside his or her speciality.
Divided into four sections, the book covers the basic music history
survey usually taken by music majors; music appreciation and
introductory courses aimed at non-majors; special topic courses
such as women and music, music for film and American music; and
more general issues such as writing, using anthologies, and
approaches to teaching in various situations. In addition to these
specific areas, broader themes emerge across the essays. These
include how to integrate social history and cultural context into
music history teaching; the shift away from the 'classical canon';
and how to organize a course taking into consideration time
constraints and the need to appeal to students from a diverse range
of backgrounds. With contributions from both teachers approaching
retirement and those at the start of their careers, this volume
provides a spectrum of experience which will prove valuable to all
teachers of music history.
