The change needed in urban music education not only relates to the idea that music should be at the center of the curriculum; rather, it is that culturally relevant music should be a creative force at the center of reform in urban education. The Teaching Music in the Urban Classroom Set is the start of a national-level conversation aimed at making that goal a reality. In both volumes, classroom music teachers, inner city arts administrators, well-known academics, and policy-makers from across the United States and Canada join together to offer a full range of political, philosophical, and practical approaches to reaching kids in urban schools. These authors, whose voices are distinct and yet united, guide music educators at every level, motivating them to challenge tired assumptions, reconsider the issues, and transform their classrooms and their students. The set includes: Teaching Music in the Urban Classroom, Volume 1: A Guide to Survival, Success, and Reform Teaching Music in the Urban Classroom, Volume 2: A Guide to Leadership, Teacher Education, and Reform
Carol Frierson-Campbell is assistant professor of music at William Paterson University, Wayne, New Jersey, where she teaches courses in music education and graduate research and coordinates the Arts in Urban Schools outreach project.
