Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Based on Yijing, classic Confucianism, and classic Daoism, A Way of Music Education proposes a philosophy of music education as a trilogy: change, balance, and liberation. Author C. Victor Fung presents an overview of the fundamentals of classic Chinese philosophy and offers their music educational interpretations. Fung's work also offers practical advice on how to integrate his theoretical models into real life situations.
MoreLong description:
Moving back through Dewey, Heidegger, Nietzsche, and Rousseau, the lineage of Western music education finds its origins in Plato and Pythagoras. Yet theories not rooted in the ancient Greek tradition are all but absent. A Way of Music Education provides a much-needed intervention, integrating ancient Chinese thought into the canon of music education in a structured, systematized, and philosophical way. The book's three central sources - the Yijing (The Book of Changes), Confucianism, and Daoism - inform author C. Victor Fung's argument: that the human being exists as an entity at the center of an organismic world in which all things and events, including music and music education, are connected. Fung ultimately proposes a new educational philosophy based on three key ideas in Chinese thought: change, balance, and liberation. A unique work, A Way of Music Education offers a universal approach engrained in a specific and ancient cultural tradition.
this book is important ... an introductory reading that helps western music education readers understand the music education activities from multiple perspectives of Chinese philosophies.
