'...the book is exemplary in its scholarship and an invaluable addition to the literature on musical performance' Scottish Journal of Performance 'Embodied Knowledge in Ensemble Performance is clearly and logically written and draws upon an impressively broad range of research and literature to form the premise for the author's proposed paradigm of ensemble interaction. McCaleb strongly establishes his contention that ensemble performance is distinct from other social paradigms due to music being a singular form of procedural knowledge'. Philosophy of Music Education Review ' a timely and valuable contribution to this ever-expanding field The greatest contribution of McCaleb's paradigm of inter-reaction is the emphasis placed on the crucial role of embodied knowledge in shaping ensemble performance, which other frameworks have not accounted for. Future work in the field will benefit from this framework and the new directions set forth here. With a clear structure, careful introduction to its various concepts, and great depth of inquiry, this is an essential text for scholars of all levels with an interest in ensemble performance'.
