Bull, Anna Louise (Accepted: 2023) Challenging classical music’s genre conventions : Findings from a project on youth voice in instrumental education. Journal of the Royal Musical Association. ISSN 0269-0403 (In Press)
Abstract
This article explores classical music education through analysing data from a project on embedding ‘youth voice’ within instrumental teaching and learning. Drawing on theorisations of classical music as a genre, I describe how the young people in this project saw classical music’s genre conventions as working against a youth voice approach. The article also outlines the ways in which youth voice was shaped through social relations in this space as well as the ‘institutional ecology’ of music education. I argue that embedding youth voice approaches in instrumental education will only be effective if the genre itself is open to transformation.
