Teaching Musical Awareness: The Development and Application of a "Toolkit" of Strategies for Instrumental Teachers
Ward, Vicky
British Journal of Music Education, v24 n1 p21-36 Mar 2007
Despite recent moves toward a more collaborative relationship between the academic pursuit of music analysis and the practical pursuit of music performance, there remains a gulf between the two disciplines. This is partly because attempts at collaboration have generally focused on the use of music performance as a way of teaching music analysis rather than the use of music analysis as a way of teaching aspects of music performance. This article describes the development of a resource for teaching musical awareness using analytical techniques and assesses how this relates to teachers' own concerns and practices.
