Curricular Orientations in Elementary School Music: Roles, Pedagogies, and Values.

Bresler, Liora

Bulletin of the Council for Research in Music Education, n127 p22-27 Win 1995-1996

Explores the day-to-day music curriculum in three elementary schools. Identifies three orientations toward the role of music education: (1) the functional, based on traditional academic goals and content; (2) the complementary, relegating music to a hidden curriculum; and (3) the expansive, focusing on enhancing perceptual and problem-solving skills.
