Open publisher page 70 citations
Abstract
This chapter explores the notion of a ‘community of practice’ in relation to children's music-making in informal settings. It illustrates recent research in children's communication of musical practice that investigates the communicative processes that hold between persons and practices in these communities, and the nature of musical engagement in these settings.
