Places and Purposes of Popular Music Education

Description

This book provides a manuscript-megaphone for a variety of perspectives on popular music education, including those we do not usually hear from, but who are doing far and away the coolest, most relevant and most interesting things.

It includes rants, manifestos, and pieces that are pithy and punchy and poignant, which have resulted in a wide tonal variety among chapters, from more traditionally scholarly pieces replete with citations and references, through descriptions of practice, to straight-up polemics. It is more about beliefs, experiences and motivation, about frustrations, aspirations and celebrations. The chapters are intended to whet appetites, prime pumps, open eyes, and keep cogs turning. This book is organized into four parts:  Beyond the Classroom, Identity and Purpose, Higher Education and Politics and Ideology. This book is intended for academics of all ages and stages, but the writing is often deliberately non-academic in tone.

The book will appeal to those working in popular music studies, communication studies, education research, and should be of interest to those involved in policy decisions at national and regional levels. It is also directly relevant to researchers looking music industry and music ecosystems nationally, regionally and internationally, as education and popular music industry, DIY and community sectors continue to enmesh in complex and evolving ways.

Introduction
Gareth Dylan Smith and Bryan Powell
This book arose from what felt like an urgent need. The journey to publication began in about 2015 when at a board meeting of the Association for Popular Music Education (APME) it was suggested that as the organization positioning itself as the primary body in popular music education - or at least the most highly visible one - we really ought to make some sort of a statement about what popular music education is. It would help, presumably, to know (and, moreover, to let others know) precisely for what we were the association .
At that meeting, we decided that APME should produce a white paper to define for ourselves and others what we meant by popular music education . With one exception we were all from the United States, and all of us were White. All but one of the task force members were cisgender males. We all worked in higher education, and about half of us had doctoral degrees. A year later, we brought our messy first draft to another APME board meeting, and Gareth Dylan Smith was assigned to finish it off in as cogent a fashion as possible, send it to the task force and then to the rest of the board for sign-off and publication. The white paper, Popular music education: A white paper by the Association for Popular Music Education , was posted on the APME website, and was later published in volume 2, issue 3 of the Journal of Popular Music Education ( JPME ); the white paper in
