The publication leaves much to be desired. I strongly agree with the committee's conclusions that “music is basic in education” and that music education “deserves a prominent position in the curriculum of the elementary and secondary schools….” But there is little language in the publication that supports these conclusions. Issues identified in the title of the paper are not further addressed in the body. For example, the title refers to the role that music (not music education) plays in children's overall development. This suggests that the paper will deal with the plurality of musics and musical experiences in contemporary youth culture and that the MENC is taking a position on informal as well as formal agencies of teaching and learning. However, the reader searches in vain for any discussion of these important issues. The title also suggests that music educators play a central role in “the total development of the child.” Yet, aside from this reference to individualized instruction, the paper does not actually concern itself with the totality Qr diverse contexts of individual development. There is no recognition of the fact that music education, as formalized instruction in schools, plays only a small part in a child's upbringing when compared to the parts played by parents, peers, and the media. And, although one might expect the MENC to recommend professional strategies for dealing with those as- iNleW/ Husk fof P/n\ for concert •Dirndl c©imlteslc KADDISH, McBeth (MD) ………$40.00 A tonal memorial to J.

BOX 329 SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS 78292 mej/feb ‘78 15 pects of the media that are flagrantly miseducative, our leadership group is mute on this crucial issue. Furthermore, no mention is made of the miniroles that music and the other fine arts continue to play in American education despite cutbacks and administrative protests over the past decade. Nor is any remedy proposed that has not been put forth before—and ignored or rejected before. The paper does not identify or take positions on other key issues in contemporary education. I refer in particular to questions of our own professional priorities. Given the fact that the majority of music educators occupy relatively minor positions in the education hierarchy, what contributions should they make that are indispensable? What endeavors should chiefly characterize their work with people in respective age groups and categories of need? And what are the most desirable relationships of general and special education to aesthetic, arts, and music education? Questions like these are not answered in the document because the authors have not asked them. Issues that are identified in the paper are not adequately developed or persuasively summarized. Nearly half of the publication is devoted to a recitation of rationales for music instruction in successive cultures dating from ancient Greece. Consequently, little space remains in which to explain current MENC conceptions of “the inherent and unique values of the arts,” the “aesthetic and cultural objectives of education,” and “the diverse benefits of music instruction.” Because the paper relies heavily on undefined terms and unjustified assumptions, issues become confused and confusing rather than clarified. This is particularly true of the one issue that is treated at some length: the artistic-integrity versus academic-utility issue. Rather than expose it as the false dichotomy that it is, the MENC committee merely reiterates ambivalences that have plagued music educators for over twenty years. I see no reason to continue to be swayed by the “aesthetic” as opposed to the “ancillary” contributions of music education. Neither should we confound ourselves any longer over the question of whether we teach the arts “primarily for their own sake” or for the sake of the general well-being of the people. All of these elements are important, and they have the potential to be mutually reinforcing. We should not presume that these issues are thoroughly understood by professional colleagues much less by the general public. The same key questions need to be asked again and again openly and honestly. And each one deserves to be answered in like r————-—— FREE SAMPLE!
