People who read through Teaching General Music: Approaches, Issues, and Viewpoints will be able to make informed choices about the ways they might expand their own teaching approaches and possibly try out ways of teaching that were previously unfamiliar. This book has the potential to expand options for people who teach music in all types of contexts and provide young people with even more opportunities to experience and learn music in varied ways. --Evan S. Tobias
