Join us in Seattle for the second annual seminar on Teaching World Music in Higher Education. Intended for university faculty in the process of diversifying undergraduate studies in music, the seminar is hosted by the University of Washington in collaboration with Smithsonian Folkways Recordings. Content will cover music sources and resources for individual courses, cross-program weaves, and curricular reform in music history/culture, theory, education, and performance. Practical and applied matters will be recommended and discussed, including the selection of course-appropriate textbooks and trustworthy recordings, videos and online sources, the design of course projects, and the development of field visits, community collaborations, and artist residencies. Ethno-cultural issues and matters of diversity, equity, and inclusion will be addressed in the context of universities, conservatories, two-year colleges, and teacher in-service education. Faculty to include Patricia Shehan Campbell, Amanda Soto, and others. Seminar fee: $295 (includes selected resources)
