Recenzii
'This book presents a wealth of practical, down-to-earth advice from music history teachers at a variety of institutions. It's just the kind of book I wish I had had as a first-year faculty member, and one that I know I will dip into as I continue to refine my teaching approach in the coming years and decades. From managing one's first semester on the tenure track to creating strategies for renewal in every semester thereafter, the essays collected here can serve as a jumping-off point to reflect on the reasons why we musicologists do what we do and how we can do it better.’ Marie Sumner-Lott, Georgia State University, USA
'This collection is an important, if long overdue, handbook that will be of use to both beginning and experienced teachers. Readers will find themselves enlightened by these contributions no matter what classes they teach, from non-major classes to graduate seminars. They will find specific, concrete ideas to improve their teaching from revising entire courses to tweaking specific class presentations. Many of the ideas presented in The Music History Classroom can be integrated into the current structure of the class a teacher is using, and the volume can be referred to again and again over time for specific ideas as one’s teaching evolves.’ Matthew Balensuela, DePauw University, USA
‘Music history pedagogy in the classroom is always a challenge - to find the right mix of lecture, discussion, listening, and score analysis so as to be able to impart a relevant mix of essential facts and historical signposts without swamping our students, and to instill a set of critical and interpretive strategies they can make part of their skill set for lifelong learning. The Music History Classroom fills a longstanding need, providing sage, practical advice - from a distinguished roster of experienced teachers who are also active research musicologists - on the nuts and bolts of course design, out-of-class assignments, lecturing and other classroom-based activities, grading, and more. Such material will be of the greatest value, as well, to an additional audience: the adjuncts and part-timers, and the uncredentialled (by whom I have in mind professional performers and applied studio teachers) who are doing an ever increasing amount of the teaching of music history in higher education today.’ Peter M. Lefferts, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, USA
‘Although aimed at college providers of music history courses, there is much practical teaching advice on a range of topics which the classroom teacher should find useful and interesting… A fascinating book which the teacher will want to dip into for day-to-day teaching ideas - and for when they might want to sit back and reflect on the bigger picture.' Music Teacher Magazine
‘The Music History Classroom offers direct and practical approaches to teaching music history in the twenty-first century. This collection represents a valuable new addition to the pedagogical publications addressing the unique situations and challenges music history presents. Its direct style and inclusion of examples, explanations, and anecdotes provide teachers with resources and inspiration for new directions their courses may explore.' Notes
