A special theme issue of Orbit Magazine

Think of "music lessons." What do you remember? What will your students
remember from music class? Will they think of learning music they wanted
to share with their friends? Of being so engaged they wanted to do nothing
else? Or will they remember feelings of boredom, anxiety, or hurt?

In this issue we focus on learning and teaching conditions that lead to
music-making as an engaging, delightful life-long experience for everyone.
Learning to be music-makers and music-lovers is for every student and
teacher, not just the "Music Teacher" and the "Music Class."

Some topics covered:
Why is music the voice of the soul?
How to build classroom magic
Is the classical concert enough?
How to overcome music phobia among teachers and students?
Importance of music experiences in early childhood

Thought-provoking articles:
Is music teaching guilty of systemic violence?
Why is class music so unlike the musical culture?
Why is judgement the first response to music?
Is all music teaching in the "rehearsal model"?

Some authors:
Rena Upitus, Patricia O'Toole, Roberta Lamb, Lee Willingham, Lee Bartel
