Popular Music - A Teacher''s Guide

Zusammenfassung The approach of this book, first published in 1982, is multi-disciplinary. Popular music, it is argued, is not only a musical but also a social phenomenon; the criteria needed to assess it are different from those used in the appreciation of ‘classical’ music. The first section of this guide is devoted to setting out just what those criteria should be. A second section puts forward bases for course construction that are detailed and flexible. A final section provides a list of further resources. Inhaltsverzeichnis Part 1. Why this Series? Part 2. Guidance for Teachers and Classroom Projects 1. Introduction 2.
