Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on music identity, this book delves into the personal narratives of teaching students training to educate children aged 3-11. It examines how their perceptions of musical ability, influenced by societal standards of western high art music, affect their confidence in teaching. Through the lenses of symbolic interactionism and social constructionism, it reveals the challenges these students face in expressing their musical identity within the constraints of educational expectations. This exploration is relevant for academics, musicians, and youth workers aiming to empower young people in their musical journeys.
