Description
For early childhood music and creative arts courses.
This long-awaited revision of this best-selling core text has been completely updated to meld the classic content of previous editions with the latest in music theory and research, and a fresh focus on multicultural music. National music standards are teamed with the comprehensive survey of professional research previous users cherish, and linked to a wealth of activities for using music - including, in this edition, opera, classical music, and folk music - and movement experiences with children from birth to age 6. Sections on developmentally-appropriate practice present concrete experiences and activities for sharing music with all children in an inclusive environment in which the enjoyment of music is seen to be paramount.
