Music education thrives on philosophical inquiry, the systematic and critical        examination of beliefs and assumptions. Yet philosophy, often considered abstract        and irrelevant, is often absent from the daily life of music instructors. In The        Oxford Handbook of Philosophy in Music Education, editors Wayne D. Bowman and Ana        Lucia Frega have drawn together a variety of philosophical perspectives from the        profession's most exciting scholars. Rather than relegating philosophical inquiry to        moot questions and abstract situations, the contributors to this volume address        everyday concerns faced by music educators everywhere, demonstrating that philosophy        offers a way of navigating the daily professional life of music education and        proving that critical inquiry improves, enriches, and transforms instructional        practice for the better. Questioning every musical practice, instructional aim,        assumption, and conviction in music education, The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy in        Music Education presents new and provocative approaches to the practice of teaching        music.Bowman and Frega go deeper than mere advocacy or a single point of view, but        rather conceive of philosophy as a dynamic process of debate and reflection that        must constantly evolve to meet the shifting landscapes of music education. In place        of the definitive answers often associated with philosophical work, Bowman and Frega        offer a fascinating cross-section of often-contradictory approaches and viewpoints.          By bringing together essays by both established and up-and-coming scholars from six        continents, Bowman and Frega go beyond the Western monopoly of philosophical        practice and acknowledge the diversity of cultures, instructors, and students who        take part in music education. This range of perspectives invites broader        participation in music instruction, and presents alternative answers to many of the        fields most pressing questions and issues. By acknowledging the inherent plurality        of music educational practices, the Handbook opens up the field in new and important        ways. Emphasizing clarify, fairness, rigor, and utility above all, The Oxford        Handbook of Philosophy in Music Educationwill challenge music educators all over the        world to make their own decisions and ultimately contribute to the conversation        themselves.
