Unfreezing Music Education argues that discussing the conflicting
meanings of music should occupy a more central role in formal music
education and music teacher preparation programs than is currently
the case. Drawing on the critical theory of the Frankfurt School,
the author seeks to take a dialectical approach to musical meaning,
rooted in critical formalism, that avoids the pitfalls of both
traditional aesthetic arguments and radical subjectivity. This book
makes the case for helping students understand that the meaning of
musical forms is socially constructed through a process of
reification, and argues that encouraging greater awareness of the
processes through which music's fluid meanings become hidden will
help students to think more critically about music. Connecting this
philosophical argument with concrete, practical challenges faced by
students and educators, this study will be of interest to
researchers across music education and philosophy, as well as
post-secondary music educators and all others interested in
aesthetic philosophy, critical theory, cultural studies, or the
sociology of music and music education.
