“As ever, Eric combines his unique insights into the arts and education, his profound commitment to improving the teaching of the arts in this country, his intellect, his humor-and, in this case, his wonderful writing-to produce a book that stands a very good chance of, yes, becoming a bible for many in music education.”- Steven Seidel, Director of Harvard Project Zero, Director of Arts Education Program at Harvard Graduate School of Education “The surge of interest in te…

There is little in the Arts In Education field that directly and practically addresses Teaching Artists and the work we do in education. Eric Booth combines his experience, insight, and commitment to the arts in education to establish a revitalized foundation.

The Music Teaching Artists Bible is a must read for music professionals, novices, and virtually anyone involved in music and arts education. To be more globally competitive and to develop better citizens we need high quality programs in our schools. Eric Booth definitely ‘gets it’ as he walks the reader through a series of steps we can take to improve our children’s education and enrich all of our arts experiences.
The Music Teaching Artist’s Bible is an inspirational, practical, and unsentimental resource. It has relevance for teaching artists of all disciplines (not just music) and at all levels of teaching expertise. As a professional developer and teaching artist myself, I am taken with the clarity of language and the specificity of information in Mr. Booth’s book. The Music Teaching Artist’s Bible emphasizes listening: to students, educational partners, audience responses and works of art, and reflecting and revising based upon what we hear and learn. I am thrilled to have this comprehensive source for the essential ideas of teaching artist practice. I know I will refer to it all the time.
