Re-imagining the
Music Rehearsal
and classroom
Paul Kimpton & Ann Kimpton.
Teaching in the 21st century can be a daunting yet
exhilarating experience. It is daunting because a
plethora of initiatives have been hurled at educators
from every direction. Current and future music
educators must continually adapt their teaching
philosophies, strategies, rehearsals, music selection
processes, assessment practices, and grading proce-
dures to justify one of the most important subjects
a student can study, and that is music. Common
Core: Re-Imagining the Music Rehearsal and
Classroom, complete with workbook exercises and
reflective questions, is about transforming a writ-
ten document, The Common Core State Standards,
into practical applications in the music classroom.
Authors Paul and Ann Kimpton outline how to use
the Common Core State Standards to help students
develop a higher level of understanding of musi-
cal skills and content, and to help students engage
with music more deeply and with more meaning.
Intended for kindergarden through college music
educators, administrators, and pre-service educa-
tors, this book is an excellent resource that can have
a profound impact on the music classroom.
