In Performance by Bailey
In Performance teaches music appreciation by connecting the history of music--why it was created and how it was first used--to how and where music is now performed and what it means to us in the present day. By emphasizing where music is heard, this text aims to create lifelong, active music listeners who understand the value of different types of music and the impact that it has on their everyday lives.
"I absolutely love this! In Performance will get students' attention and engage them in class activities and discussionsIt will also make the class more contemporary and fun."--Debbie O'Connell, Winston-Salem State University "This text features unique concepts that allow for more concrete enjoyment of music, good coverage of musical trends and styles, and an easy-to-read style. Overall, it is refreshing."--James McAllister, Garden City Community College "This approach is unique and communicates better than the typical chronological approach by putting music into the context/venue in which it is heard."--John Irish, Angelo State University
Wayne Bailey is Professor of Music at the Herberger Institute's School of Music at Arizona State University, where he teaches music appreciation and graduate and undergraduate courses in conducting.
