Abstract

The two volumes under review are addressed primarily, but not exclusively, to Primary school students. They are a response to the need for training that is often lacking among those attending these courses (and among the teachers of these school levels). Asinari’s volume is intended as a kind of compendium, briefly covering all areas of music, and may be a useful aid for those who, in the absence of specific training, have to study musical subjects in their university courses. Mari’s collection, written with the help of musicians and teachers who collaborate with her in her courses, focuses more on the didactic side: articles on pedagogy and methodology, combined with an analysis of the legal framework, are complemented by more hands-on contributions with practical suggestions and descriptive teaching proposals. Beyond their different approaches, the contributions in both volumes share the high formative value they ascribe to music: although they follow different paths, the authors seek to lead music education on the road to emancipation from the role of mere entertainment that has long accompanied it.
