Praxial Music Education Reflections and Dialogues

Elliott's groundbreaking 1995 book, Music Matters: A New Philosophy in Music Education, introduced the praxial theory of music education which argues for a socially and artistically grounded concept of music and music education, challenging the field's traditional &quote;absolutist&quote; foundations. Praxial Music Education collects the responses to his thesis from leading scholars in the field. A companion to Music Matters, this book is designed to spark debate and deeper analysis of this influential theory in music education.
