Description

Community Music: In Theory and in Practice by Lee Higgins explores an innovative approach to music-making outside formal teaching situations. This comprehensive guide contextualises Community Music within today's musical landscape, tracing its historical development and examining its distinctive practices. Higgins delves into the principles of active participation, equality of opportunity, and fostering a diverse environment for all participants. The book concludes with a discussion of future directions for this unique music-making discipline. Ideal for those invested in music education, music therapy, applied ethnomusicology, or community cultural development, as well as practitioners and participants of Community Music activities, this first full-length work on the subject offers valuable insights into its theory and practice.
