Product Description -
In a world facing multiple existentialA crises, music might be seen as little moreA than a distraction. However, in thisA synthesis of ideas developed over aA decade, a timely re-appraisal of theA potential of musicing for humanA flourishing is presented, emphasising itsA role in the history of human evolutionA alongside its potential as a resource forA sustainable development.A A holistic philosophy of music is outlinedA which recognises the complex web ofA meaning which spreads acrossA complementary musical dimensions ofA performance and participation, whilstA emphasising the a€˜paramusicala€ benefitsA which arise from both. Highlighting theA notion that the social bonds which ariseA from musicing share much of theA neurobiological underpinnings ofA attachment and love, musicing isA presented as a resource with the potentialA for facilitating ethical human connection. The humanistic values which are therebyA materialised during musicing a€“ love,A reciprocity and justice a€“ form theA experiential grounds for inhabitingA alternative social realities.A The book addresses how such a holisticA philosophy of music might beA implemented in practice, drawing on theA authora€s professional praxis as aA performer, educator, community musician,A composer and researcher, in particularA their experience of musician education atA Sage Gateshead, Royal College of MusicA and Trinity-Laban Conservatoire in theA UK.
