Reviews
“This volume is much more than an introduction to another culture; one gains an understanding of an emerging educational system in music and visual arts through the eyes of teachers. … Each chapter has sufficient depth that the novice reader can understand the policies and pressures which have an impact on curricula in each country.” (Richard Colwell, British Journal of Music Education (BJME), Vol. 32 (3), November, 2015)
“This book offers, a range of topics related to music, complete and well researched information for teachers, students and anyone interested in music. … There is a clarity of thought and ideas throughout all the chapters in this book, and they certainly afford well researched, first-hand information to anyone wanting to know about traditional and contemporary music in Greater China.” (Sujatha Gomathinayagam, He Kupu, Vol. 3 (4), 2014)
