"""The Oxford Handbook of Choral Pedagogy is crafted for all practitioners of the choral arts. The plethora of information within this handbook provides new insights and pedagogical practices to better understand choral pedagogy in the twenty-first century."" -- Alan Davis, Choral Journal ""This book undoubtedly makes a major contribution to choral pedagogy. Uncompromisingly academic in tone and intent, there is much to ponder here. Often challenging accepted notions, this fine handbook is an excellent marker for where choral pedagogy is right now. Where the practice will be, say, in 50 years time, no one can know. But Abrahams and Head's volume will surely remain an essential reference tool for at least the next half century."" -- Philip Reed, hoir & Organ"
