This annotated anthology documents historical trends and basic
findings regarding music in early childhood education, development,
and care. The papers in this volume discuss the main research
trends of musical engagement with early children, such as music in
the family, employing music in child care, and musical skill and
development. This collection hopes to stimulate further reflections
on the implementation of music in daily practice. The volume
represents many facets of research from different cultural contexts
and reflects trends and projects of music in early childhood. The
findings incorporate a historical perspective with regards to
different topics and approaches. The book provides practitioners
and researchers of music education, music development, and music
psychology, an opportunity to read a selection of articles that
were previously published in the journal Early Child Development
and Care. Each paper concludes with an annotation note supplied by
the principle author addressing how they see their article from the
perspective of today.
This book, the first full-length text on the subject, explores the
everyday use of music listening while driving a car. It presents
the relationship between cars and music in an effort to understand
how music behaviour in the car can either enhance driver safety or
place the driver at increased risk of accidents. A great deal of
work has been done to investigate and reduce driver distraction and
inattention, but this book is the first to focus on in-cabin aural
backgrounds of music as a contributing factor to human error and
traffic violations. Driving With Music begins by outlining the
automobile, its relationship to society, and the juxtaposition of
music with the automobile as a complete package. It then highlights
concepts from the fields of music perception and cognition, and,
within this framework, looks at the functional use of background
music in our everyday lives. Driver music behaviours - both
adaptive and maladaptive - are explored, with the focus on
contradictions and ill-effects of in-car music listening. To
conclude, implications, applications and countermeasures are
suggested.
