Synopsis
In Performance teaches music appreciation by focusing on how all listeners first encounter music--through its performance. By emphasizing where music is heard or performed, this text aims to create lifelong, active music listeners who understand the value of different types of music and the impact that it has on their everyday lives. In addition to covering the standard Western music that other music appreciation texts do, In Performance also discusses concert band music, film music, ballet music, jazz, and popular music. Author Wayne Bailey connects the history of music--why it was created and how it was first used--to how and where we hear music now and what it means to us in the present day.

Review
"I absolutely love this! In Performance will get students' attention and engage them in class activities and discussions. It will also make the class more contemporary and fun."--Debbie O'Connell, Winston-Salem State University
"This text features unique concepts that allow for more concrete enjoyment of music, good coverage of musical trends and styles, and an easy-to-read style. Overall, it is refreshing."--James McAllister, Garden City Community College
"This approach is unique and communicates better than the typical chronological approach by putting music into the context/venue in which it is heard."--John Irish, Angelo State University
