Seeking the Significance of Music Education

Essays and Reflections

About this book

Noted music educator Bennett Reimer has selected 24 of his previously published articles from a variety of professional journals spanning the past 50 years. During that time, he's tackled:
-generating core values for the field of music education;
-the core in larger societal and educational contexts;
-what to teach and how to teach it effectively;
-how we need to educate our teachers;
-the role of research in our profession; and
-how to improve our future status.

Reimer precedes each essay with background reflections and his position, both professional and personal, on effectively addressing the issue at hand. The opening "Letter to the Reader" presents a valuable overview based on his deeply grounded viewpoint. The entire music education profession will benefit from Reimer's perspective on past, present, and future concerns central to the functioning of music education in Seeking the Significance of Music Education: Essays and Reflections.
