Pierre Bourdieu has been an extraordinarily influential figure in
the sociology of music. For over four decades, his concepts have
helped to generate both empirical and theoretical interventions in
the field of musical study. His impact on the sociology of music
taste, in particular, has been profound, his ideas directly
informing our understandings of how musical preferences reflect and
reproduce inequalities between social classes, ethnic groups, and
men and women. Bourdieu and the Sociology of Music Education draws
together a group of international researchers, academics and
artist-practitioners who offer a critical introduction and
exploration of Pierre Bourdieu's rich generative conceptual tools
for advancing sociological views of music education. By employing
perspectives from Bourdieu's work on distinction and judgement and
his conceptualisation of fields, habitus and capitals in relation
to music education, contributing authors explore the ways in which
Bourdieu's work can be applied to music education as a means of
linking school (institutional habitus) and learning, and curriculum
and family (class habitus). The volume includes research
perspectives and studies of how Bourdieu's tools have been applied
in industry and educational contexts, including the primary,
secondary and higher music education sectors. The volume begins
with an introduction to Bourdieu's contribution to theory and
methodology and then goes on to deal in detail with illustrative
substantive studies. The concluding chapter is an extended essay
that reflects on, and critiques, the application of Bourdieu's work
and examines the ways in which the studies contained in the volume
advance understanding. The book contributes new perspectives to our
understanding of Bourdieu's tools across diverse settings and
practices of music education.
