Description
Parenting Musically explores how families use music in their daily lives to support their children's musical development and beyond. Through interviews with eight diverse Cleveland-area families, this book sheds light on the ways parents and caregivers engage with music at home, school, and in community settings.
The author examines two key approaches: musical parenting, which focuses on supporting a child's musical growth, and parenting musically, which uses music to achieve non-musical goals. By analyzing family interactions through these lenses, the book reveals the importance of recognizing and valuing both modes of engagement.
By exploring themes such as conscious and intuitive parenting, the rewards and struggles of musical practice, and the role of mutuality in community musicking, Parenting Musically offers a nuanced understanding of how families use music to build relationships and navigate their daily lives.
