India's Music: Popular Film Songs in the Classroom
Sarrazin, Natalie
Music Educators Journal, v93 n1 p26 Sep 2006
Indian film industry is the largest film industry in the world, with an output roughly three times that of Hollywood. This popular world music could easily be an exciting part of a multicultural music education curriculum. This music not only exposes students to an entirely new musical genre and cultural industry, but can also change their perception of their own film industry, popular music, and values as students explore how another culture makes and enjoys music. In this article, the author discusses Indian film music and culture and suggests a few starting points for introducing Indian popular film music in the classroom. (Contains 10 notes, 16 resources and 9 online resources.)
