About the Author:

William M. Anderson has been a professor of music education at Kent State University for many years. He also has substantial teaching experience in public schools and has authored numerous books on music education.

Review:

"The most difficult part of teaching this course is helping and encouraging students with limited musical experience, especially in the area of singing. This textbook is very helpful because of the great number of the song, familiar and less well-known that students can use in class demonstrations and lesson planning."

"I enjoy this book because it does a nice job of balancing music fundamentals with information for the elementary educator."

"It contains wonderful songs and information from other countries, which is an immediate resource for cultural diversity."
