Teaching for musical creativity, reflection and cultural relevance : meeting challenges of engagement

Anne Power, Michael Atherton, Bruce Crossman

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference Paper › Chapter

Abstract

In 2005 I conducted a small project in four high schools using selected music of Tan Dun as some of the stimulus material for composition. Subsequently, in 2007 another project was conducted in eight one-teacher schools using a different musical selection by this composer in creative response to the performance of a Chinese story. The projects were both motivated by a general desire to provide opportunities for students in primary and high school settings to interact with non-Western music and take part in guided reflection about their experiences.
