Like most crafts, music requires a balance of theoretical knowledge and practical skills that contribute to a highly tuned ability to appreciate and express music. Thirty chapters contributed by leading international music researchers explore general trends that influence musicianship in the twenty-first century, such as an increased reliance on digital media, greater awareness of the neurological basis for musical behaviour, a renewed interest in connections between bodily movements and musical expression, and increased cultural plurality resulting from more frequent travel, increased levels of migration and ubiquitous telecommunications. The book has a deliberate focus on the developmental aspects of musicianship, which will benefit those hoping to advance their own music learning or that of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This book explores musicianship from four perspectives\u2014sound, perception, embodiment and culture\u2014in the hope that this framework stimulates a reconsideration of musicianship and how it might be developed.
