Media Reviews
A sensitively written introduction for generalist primary student teachers and those beginning to work in the primary music context. It provides a comprehensive insight into all aspects of primary music. * David Ian Shirley, Senior Lecturer in Primary Music Education, Edge Hill University, UK *
An invaluable resource. Expertly combining well-structured and approachable practical teaching ideas and lesson planning approaches, the author has a real gift for bringing to life in words the intangible qualities that make music teaching so rewarding. The built-in reflection through `Pauses for thought' promotes active reading, relating the material to the reader's own experiences and encouraging critical engagement with research. * Hermione Ruck Keene, Associate Lecturer in Music Education, University of Exeter, UK *
