Creative Research in Music: Informed Practice, Innovation and Transcendence - Reid, Anna -1963; Peres Da Costa, Neal; Carrigan, Jeanell -1959 (New York Routledge, 2021)
"Creative Research in Music explores what it means to be an artistic researcher in music in the 21st century. The book delineates the myriad processes that underpin successful artistic research in music, providing best practice exemplars ranging from Western classical art to local indigenous traditions, and from small to large-scale, multi-media and cross-cultural work formats. Drawing on the richness of creative research work at key institutions in the South-East Asian and Australian region, this book examines the social, political, historical and cultural driving forces that spur and inspire excellence in creative research to extend and to cross boundaries, to sustain our music industry, to advocate for the importance of music in our world, and to make it clear that music matters. In fourteen chapters, authors explain present the ideas of informed practice, innovation and transcendence. Each of these three themes has an introductory section where the theme is explored and the chapters in that section introduced. At the conclusion of each such section, the editors summarise the pedagogical and social implications for performance practice. A final chapter in the book discusses how the themes in combination, with reference to the authorial group, are able to transform music pedagogy and performance for our global and complex world"
