Summary

Designed for prospective teachers without extensive music backgrounds, this market-leading text provides both a thorough overview of the basic elements of music and a clear sequence of instructional steps that allows readers to participate in the same learning process they will later use as teachers. Packaged with a free audio CD which includes both songs and listening lessons foundin the text,Music Fundamentalshas been updated to reflect the new National Standards and the diverse nature of today's classrooms. The text continues to be written in such a way that, once students leave the college classroom, they can easily use the text with their own students, without continual music specialist assistance.
