Musical Development and Learning: The International Perspective

How do children learn - or learn about - music? How do national 
cultures and education systems affect children's musical learning? 
These are the ambitious questions this book confronts.

Musical Development and Learning provides answers - combining information,
analysis and evaluation - from fifteen countries. This unique survey,
written by an international team of experts, not only provides a global
perspective on musical education and development but also a comparative
framework designed to enable teachers, parents and researchers to learn from
practice and policy in other countries.


David J. Hargreaves is Professor of Child Development at the University of
Surrey Roehampton and Adrian C. North is Lecturer in Psychology at Leicester
University.
