Songs in Their Heads : Music and Its Meaning in Children's Lives
By:Patricia Shehan Campbell Professor of Music Education University of Washington
Published on 1998-03-19 by Oxford University Press, USA
This book explores the musical interest and needs of children in their daily lives. Based upon their expressed thoughts and actual |musicking| behaviors, this text examines the songs they sing, the rythyms they make, and the roles that music plays for them. Blending standard education field experiences with ethnographic techniques, Dr. Campbell demonstrates how music is personally and socially meaningful to children and what values they place on particular musical styles, songs, and functions. He explores musical behaviors in various contextual settings, and presents in notated and narrative forms some of the |songs in their heads,| balancing music learned with music |made,| and intentional, purposeful music with natural musical behavior. Songs in Their Heads is a vivid and engaging book that bridges the disciplines of music education, musicology, ethnomusicology, and folklore. Designed as a text or supplemental text in a variety of music education method courses, as well as a reference for music specialists and classroom teachers, this book will also appeal to parents interested in understanding and enhancing music making in their children.
