For thinking musicians intrigued with the intricacies of human musical learning, and who may well be teaching music learners in any number of settings and situations, Oxford's Handbook on Music Learning provides plenty of engaging ideas and perspectives to know and reflect upon. The span of topics is vast, from learning theory to musical development, motivation, critical thinking, and insights on the acquisition of key skills that embrace music listening, music reading, singing, and very much more...This volume will find relevance in graduate seminars and advanced undergraduate courses, and will function as far more than mere reviews of literature but as means of launching further inquiry into the phenomenon of how music is learned by learners of every age from infancy onward. --Patricia Shehan Campbell, Donald E. Peterson Professor of Music, University of Washington Handbooks I and II provided an unparalleled overview of the research base of our profession. The MENC Handbook of Research on Music Learning complements them superbly. It seeks especially to help fill the gaps between theory, research, and practice. The good news is that it succeeds admirably. There is simply nothing comparable. The bad news? There isn't any! --Paul Lehman, Professor Emeritus, School of Music, University of Michigan, Past President, MENC: The National Association for Music Education The essays offer valuable insights from researchers and practitioners on how people learn music and, thus, on how music is or should be taught. This work will be welcomed by scholars and practitioners of music education, who continually assess music teaching and strive to make it better...Recommended. --Choice
