Paperback. Condizione: New. International Perspectives in Higher Education offers a balanced perspective on how different countries approach key policies and what the United States can learn from those programs. Jason D. Delisle and Alex Usher have gathered a diverse group of experts to examine systems across the globe with a focus on the trade-offs between access, cost, and quality.  The book explores a set of cross-cutting global topics such as free tuition, restricted versus unrestricted access, and the structure of student loans, drawing out the similarities and differences across countries. It also provides single-country case studies from Chile, Australia, and Brazil, paying close attention to the context in which specific reforms arose and the unintended consequences of implementation. Too often, programs found in other countries are presented as silver-bullet solutions to be lifted from one country and grafted on to the US system. This book, however, advocates for a careful examination of the strategies other countries are enacting-the political, historical, and demographic context, as well as the trade-offs among different outcomes-before deciding whether they would work here.  Delisle and Usher provide an understanding of the interplay among various higher education reforms and the opportunities and challenges involved in undertaking similar reforms in the US context. Given the tremendous challenges facing the US system, their work establishes a solid foundation for policy debates moving forward.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The Oxford Handbook of Orchestration Studies takes a new approach to the subject of orchestration, or the aspect of crafting a musical work that involves choosing and combining instruments and other sound sources to create combinations of tone colors (timbres). While most existing books on orchestration are textbooks or how-to manuals, this volume brings together a wide range of musical and scholarly perspectives on orchestration.This volume assembles authors from many established disciplines-musicology, ethnomusicology, music theory, organology, music psychology, composition, conducting, performing, cognitive science, acoustics, computer science, film, audio engineering, and more-to argue for the centrality of orchestration in musical practice and examine this often-neglected topic.Musical scholarship has frequently relegated orchestration to a merely decorative role-the adornment of composed notes and rhythms with instrumental timbres- but this volume seeks to reclaim orchestration's importance as an inherent and essential part of creative music making in a variety of genres and styles. Though the term "orchestration" is most typically associated with arranging previously composed musical ideas for the symphonic orchestra, this volume's definition (adapted from music psychologist Stephen McAdams) is much broader: orchestration is the choice, combination, and/or juxtaposition of timbres in a musical context. Under this encompassing definition, orchestration is no longer separate from composition and improvisatory creation but an integral part of the process: whenever we "com-pose" (put together) timbres with attention to their constituent and emergent qualities, we are simultaneously orchestrating.In this sense, orchestration is present in virtually all musical settings and traditions, from chamber music to gamelan ensembles, jazz big bands, or the mixing of synthesized sounds in the electronic music studio. By adopting the phrase "orchestration studies," this volume seeks to open a wide-ranging interdisciplinary engagement with the topic. Scientific and theoretical approaches are introduced in an accessible way to musicians and scholars, with an eye towards practical applications.
