Recenzii
The book is particularly interesting from an educational perspective because of its applied focus and its structural features ... The book's structural features help to provide clarity of information and encourage independent learning, reflecting a model for good textbook writing practice.
Performing Music Research provides a comprehensive, accessible, and brilliantly written explanation of research technique, and an unparalleled teaching and learning resource that researchers in music education, music psychology, and performance science internationally and well into the future will all want to include in their library.
Performing Music Research takes students on a journey toward becoming a knowledgeable and productive scholar. Beginning with formulation of the research question, the text lays out a path through data collection processes and analysis techniques that embraces a diversity of methodological approaches. Guidance on scholarly presentations and publications completes the picture of the student as an emerging researcher. Drawing perspectives from across the music discipline, the authors provide relevant examples and address timely topics to effectively connect the doing of music with its systematic examination as a distinctive human phenomenon. This is an excellent guide for any student interested in the study of musical behaviors, attitudes, and practices.
The authors have provided a start-to-finish manual of how to conceive, execute, analyse, and report empirical research on musical behaviour. Drawing on their extensive experience as researchers and teachers in music higher education, they have provided a resource which will be a useful refresher to experienced researchers as well as a systematic guide for novices. The authors illustrate fundamental principles of empirical research by well-chosen examples of contemporary music research, engagingly illustrating how, by following the general requirements of best research practice, musicians can gain better answers to the questions that concern them in their practice and pedagogy. It should be widely welcomed in conservatoires and university music departments as a valuable resource for researchers and teachers alike.
Performing Music Research is an essential read for anyone interested in interdisciplinary enquiry at the crossroads of music performance and music education, psychology, and performance science. In addition to providing a solid foundation for sound research, it provides a wealth of practical guidance, presented both with breadth and in depth, to guide the reader through the essential steps and common pitfalls of conducting research in music, informed by perspectives from multiple fields and supported by helpful learning resources. This book will no doubt become a central tool for training the next generation of music researchers, allowing them to navigate from one field to another and contribute to the advancement of musical knowledge and understanding.
