The following essays explore interdisciplinary connections that link musical ideas and experiences to the environments that humans and non-human species inhabit. Readers will quickly note the range of approaches adopted in these essays, including insights from teacher training programs, psychology, critical theory, and the performing arts. Despite the differences, each essay is informed by an underlying assumption that musical engagement can help us make better sense of our current moment of ecological crisis.en-USCopyright © 2024 by the College of General Studies, Boston University.
