What challenges face Canadian music education in the coming decades? The happy convergence of a new millennium, the 40th Anniversary of the Canadian Music Educators' Association/l'Association Canadienne des Educateurs de Musique (in 1999), and ISME 2000 in Edmonton, prompted the CMEA/ACEM to initiate a national dialogue about the future of Canadian music education. Looking Forward, edited by two of Canada's leading scholars in music education, Betty Hanley and Brian A. Roberts, is the result. Addressing a broad range of topics and educational levels, the book provides a provocative and thoughtful look at opportunities and challenges identified by fourteen articulate and well-informed authors who represent diverse backgrounds and viewpoints. The dialogue has begun.
Critical Perspectives in Canadian Music Education by Carol A. Beynon,Kari K. Veblen Pdf
Music education in Canada is a vast enterprise that encompasses teaching and learning in thousands of public and private schools, community groups, and colleges and universities. It involves participants from infancy to the elderly in formal and informal settings. Nevertheless, as post-secondary faculties of music and programs are growing significantly, academic books and materials grounded in a Canadian perspective are scarce. This book attempts to fill that need by offering a collection of essays that look critically at various global issues in music education from a Canadian perspective. Topics range from a discussion of the roots of music education in Canada and analysis of music education practices across the country to perspectives on popular music, distance education, technology, gender, globalization, Indigenous traditions, and community music in music education. Foreword by composer R. Murray Schafer.

Developing an Effective Instrumental Program for Manitoba Public Schools by Frederick Albert Merrett Pdf
The problem studied in this investigation covers the status of the instrumental music program in the public schools of the province of Manitoba during the school year 1962-63 and the teacher-training given at that time to prepare prospective teachers for instructing the students in this phase of music education. Current literature reviewed indicates that educators recognize the value of music in the education of the child and accept the contribution which instrumental music can make as part of the general music course. Although many writers justify the inclusion of instrumental music on the basis of such extrinsic benefits as mental discipline, social adjustment, and improved health, this writer agrees with those authorities who state that the intrinsic values of music are such that the subject requires no extrinsic justification ... Some recommendations follow, such as the appointment of a Director of Music for the province, the appointment of full-time Music Supervisors in each school division in Manitoba, and the inclusion in the courses required of all prospective teachers of instruction in the methods of teaching instrumental music. The writer contends that adoption of the recommendations given in the thesis could bring about the establishment of a suitable instrumental music program in the schools, and a teacher-training program in the colleges which would provide a steady flow of qualified teachers to give proper instruction in this field. The dissertation concludes with a brief description of a program for the schools and teacher-training institutions of the province, which might result in providing ample opportunities to every child for the full development of his or her musical potential.

Contemporary Research in Music Learning Across the Lifespan by Jennifer Bugos Pdf
This book examines contemporary issues in music teaching and learning throughout the lifespan, illuminating an emerging nexus of trends shaping modern research in music education. In the past, most music learning opportunities and research were focused upon the pre-adult population. Yet, music education occurs throughout the lifespan, from birth until death, emerging not only through traditional formal ensembles and courses, but increasingly through informal settings as well. This book challenges previous assumptions in music education and offers theoretical perspectives that can guide contemporary research and practice. Exploring music teaching and learning practices through the lens of human development, sections highlight recent research on topics that shape music learning trajectories. Themes uniting the book include human development, assessment strategies, technological applications, professional practices, and cultural understanding. The volume deconstructs and reformulates performance ensembles to foster mutually rewarding collaborations across miles and generations. It develops new measures and strategies for assessment practices for professionals as well as frameworks for guiding students to employ effective strategies for self-assessment. Supplemental critical thinking questions focus the reader on research applications and provide insight into future research topics. This volume joining established experts and emerging scholars at the forefront of this multifaceted frontier is essential reading for educators, researchers, and scholars, who will make the promises of the 21st century a reality in music education. It will be of interest to a range of fields including music therapy, lifelong learning, adult learning, human development, community music, psychology of music, and research design.
