Pedagogies of expertise in musical thought and practice

该项目旨在研究早期音乐专业发展的教学方法和环境特征。先前对音乐专业知识的研究研究了在个人背景下发展的乐器专业知识。该项目将研究合唱，其中儿童（6 - 17岁）达到该领域独特的专业水平，并在集体环境中获得。通过研究反映不同社会文化背景（宗教、世俗、男性、女性、土著合唱团）的儿童合唱团的专家实践，该项目旨在为音乐内外的儿童和青少年的教学实践和学习环境设计提供信息。

This project aims to research the pedagogy and environmental features that underpin the development of early expertise in music. Previous studies of musical expertise have studied instrumental expertise developed in individual contexts. The project will study choral singing, where children (age 6 – 17) attain a standard of expertise unique to that domain and acquired in a collective setting. Through studying expert practice in children’s choirs that reflect diverse socio-cultural settings (sacred, secular, male, female, Indigenous choirs), the project intends to inform pedagogical practices and learning environment design for children and young people in and beyond music.
