| Summary |
"Adolescents on Music foregrounds the voices of 30 American adolescent musicians, ages 12-18. Adolescent singer-songwriters, studio and solo musicians, rappers, composers and arrangers, and band, choir, and orchestra members tell about their musical development, what it is like to make music by themselves, and make music with others. Situated in these 30 adolescents' experiences is a theory of adolescent musical development-a theory that will help music educators support adolescents in their lives. The book is structured in three parts: (a) Part I focuses on "Who I am" with an in-depth look at musical identities; (b) Part II explores "The social self" by investigating adolescent experiences of belonging, community, and social identity; (c) Part III examines "Toward a future vision" focusing on adolescent perspectives of their future and their advice for music educators. In the last chapter, Parker proposes one philosophy of adolescent music-making. Throughout the book, research from the arts, social and natural sciences, humanities, and education dimensionalize adolescent perspectives. Special features of this book include "Step back" locations or reflective spaces for the reader to draw connections with adolescents' experience and their own experiences. At the end of each chapter, the "Wrap Up" allows additional spaces for topics, questions, and possibilities for effective teaching interactions. Between each chapter are "Interludes" written by one or more of the 30 adolescent contributors"-- Provided by publisher. |
