This book contributes to a future-focused, environmentally responsible, relationally and socially engaged, ecological discourse of music education professionalism. The authors in this edited volume engage with effecting change by interrogating fundamental disciplinary values and imagining possibilities for music and music education to be a resource and catalyst for change. Together, the chapters address two interrelated questions: What kind of music education will survive societal and planetary transitions, and perhaps more importantly, what kind of music education can impact society amidst this transition?

The axes of transformation suggested by Arturo Escobar (recommunalisation; relocalisation and strengthening autonomies; depatriarcialisation, de-racialisation and decolonialisation; and re-earthing) frame the book as a whole, while individual chapters focus on themes such as civic imagination, climate justice, ecological thinking, gender equality, innovative pedagogy, migration, music heritage, transdisciplinary collaboration, transindividualism, and professional responsibility. The richness of the perspectives presented will inspire readers to recognise possible arenas for change in their own contexts.

He has been a member of several large international research projects, including Global Visions for Mobilising Networks, ArtsEqual: The Arts as Public Service, and, most recently, Music Education, Professionalism, and Eco-Politics. He regularly publishes in top international journals in music education, and serves on the editorial board of the International Journal of Music Education.
