Welcome

A little about myself

I am a writer and speaker on music education. I write on philosophical questions relating to music education. My current interest is in ethical issues in music education and I have just completed a book, Values and Music Education. I serve as editor of the Philosophy of Music Education Review and general editor of the Counterpoints: Music and Education series published by Indiana University Press.
