Product Review
"
The author is one of the few people who actually has something unique and important to say about the present state of music education in the world." - Dr. John Kratus,
Michigan State University"
This is a broad, sweeping text. While the core issues and perspectives of the previous editions have been maintained, here they are framed and explored in light of contemporary perspectives, theories, research findings, and curricular developments. This book looks at the unique value of music and music learning, explains why school music education has been such a successful enterprise in the past, and proposes future directions for continued growth." - Dr. Steven Morrison,
University o f Washington"
Reimer is perhaps the most progressive thinker in music education because he is so knowledgeable and compassionate about current trends in philosophy, education, and psychology." - Dr. Carlos Xavier Rodriguez,
University of Iowa"
This 'revisioning' of his philosophy stakes some new ground as it adroitly and cogently addresses the tough questions faced by twenty-first century music educators. This volume is required reading for everyone concerned with the theory and practice of American music education." - Dr. James F. Daugherty,
University of Kansas
The publisher, Prentice-Hall Humanities/Social Science
This classic volume presents a unified philosophy of music -- the role of feeling, creating art, meaning in art, and experiencing art and music.

Some of Bennett Reimer's writings are very inspiring. I am so thankful that my college professor used this particular book for our required reading.
