Series: Music in American Life

Music education today requires an approach rooted in care and kindness that coexists alongside the dismantling of systems that fail to serve our communities in higher education. But, as the essayists in Sound Pedagogy show, the structural aspects of music study in higher education present obstacles to caring and kindness like the entrenched master-student model, a neoliberal individualist and competitive mindset, and classical music’s white patriarchal roots. The editors of this volume curate essays that use a broad definition of care pedagogy, one informed by interdisciplinary scholarship and aimed at providing practical strategies for bringing transformative learning and engaged pedagogies to music classrooms. The contributors draw from personal experience to address issues including radical kindness through universal design; listening to non-human musicality; public musicology as a forum for social justice discourse; and radical approaches to teaching about race through music.

Reviews for Sound Pedagogy: Radical Care in Music

A direct call for action grounded in the day-to-day work we do as teachers. Inspired by recent work in musicology and related fields, this is the first collection that brings scholars, teachers, and administrators together to think collectively about student wellbeing and the need for instructors to center care in their pedagogy. --Loren Kajikawa, author of Sounding Race in Rap Songs
