Decolonising and Indigenising Music Education : First Peoples Leading Research and Practice, Hardback Book

Decolonising and Indigenising Music Education : First Peoples Leading Research and Practice Hardback

Edited by Te Oti Rakena, Clare Hall, Anita Prest, David Johnson

Part of the ISME Series in Music Education series

Hardback

Description

Centring the voices of Indigenous scholars at the intersection of music and education, this co-edited volume contributes to debates about current colonising music education research and practices, and offers alternative decolonising approaches that support music education imbued with Indigenous perspectives.

This unique collection is far-ranging, with contributions from Chile, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, Malaysia, India, South Africa, Kenya, and Finland.

The authors interrogate and theorise research methodologies, curricula, and practices related to the learning and teaching of music.

Providing a meeting place for Indigenous voices and viewpoints from around the globe, this book highlights the imperative that Indigenisation must be Indigenous-led. The book promotes Indigenous scholars’ reconceptualisations of how music education is researched and practised, with an emphasis on the application of decolonial ways of being.

The authors provocatively demonstrate the value of power-sharing and eroding the gaze of non-Indigenous populations.

Pushing far beyond the concepts of Western aesthetics and world music, this vital collection of scholarship presents music in education as a social and political action, and shows how to enact Indigenising and decolonising practices in a wide range of music education contexts.
