Reviews

'If you're looking to decolonise your music room or include a richer musical experience to your learners, Listen & Celebrate is a must-have.' - Steve Giddings, music teacher, award-winning author and owner of Steve's Music Room 'Designed to be inclusive, respectful and celebrate the enormous achievements of individual composers, the contemporary selection of pieces, as well as the relevance of 21st century concerns such as deforestation and refugee crises, will surely inform and inspire children of a primary school age.' - Julie Digby PhD, music educator, researcher and consultant 'Brilliant resource... It really should be on every music lead's bookshelf.' - Amazon reviewer 'There could not have been a more appropriate title for this book. It reminds us of the importance of keeping our eyes and ears open to composers of all backgrounds. In this, we find variety and richness that encourages us to listen further, so that we too can celebrate.' - Eleanor Rashid for Music Teacher Magazine '[Listen & Celebrate] fills a much-needed gap and celebrates wonderful diverse music. The music selection is superb and the additional resources available to use on a white board are going to save a huge amount of time.' - Karen Marshall, author of the Get! Set Piano Series, Collins Music and Primary School Music Lead 'This book makes composing accessible even for the most inexperienced educators or the most reluctant learners... Listen & Celebrate should be in steady use by every Primary teacher and their respective teacher trainers.' - Steve Giddings, Music teacher, award-winning author and owner of Steve's Music Room 'Differentiated into KS1 and KS2, incorporating listening, performing and composing activities, as well as suggestions for further listening, assessment and progression, this useful resource is appropriate and accessible for both generalist class teachers and specialist music teachers.' - Julie Digby PhD, music educator, researcher and consultant
