Sociology for Music Teachers: Practical Applications

Sociology for Music Teachers: Practical Applications, Second Edition, outlines the basic concepts relevant to understanding music teaching and learning from a sociological perspective. It demonstrates the relationship of music to education, schooling, and society, examining the consequences for making instructional choices in teaching methods and repertoire selection. The authors look at major theories and concepts relevant to music education, texts in the sociology of music, and thoughts of selected ethnomusicologists and sociologists. The new edition takes a global approach and includes the application of sociological theory to contexts beyond the classroom.
