The Crisis of Classical Music in America by Robert Freeman focuses
on solutions for the oversupply of classically trained musicians in
America, problem that grows ever more chronic as opportunities for
classical musicians to gain full-time professional employment
diminishes year upon year. An acute observer of the professional
music scene, Freeman argues that music schools that train our
future instrumentalists, composers, conductors, and singers need to
equip their students with the communications and analytical skills
they need to succeed in the rapidly changing music scene. This book
maps a broad range of reforms required in the field of advanced
music education and the organizations responsible for that
education. Featuring a foreword by Leonard Slatkin, music director
of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, The Crisis of Classical Music in
America speaks to parents, prospective and current music students,
music teachers and professors, department deans, university
presidents and provosts, and even foundations and public
organizations that fund such music programs. This book reaches out
to all of these stakeholders and argues for meaningful change
though wide-spread collaboration.
