Assessing Musical Performance Musically.
Mills, Janet
Educational Studies, v17 n2 p173-81 1991
Discusses the subjectivity, reliability, and musical validity of both holistic and segmented assessment of musical performance. Summarizes an experiment investigating the extent to which holistic assessment can be accounted for by means of a segmented grading system. Concludes that, although a single grade provides limited information about achievement, it is sometimes necessary. (DK)
