​Hear, Listen, Play

Overview

​Hear, Listen, Play! is a book written by Lucy Green for all music teachers who are curious about the worlds of ear-playing, informal learning, improvisation, and vernacular music. Based on research that built on her previous work into how popular musicians learn in the informal realm, Lucy applies many aspects of their learning practices to three main areas within music education. It first tackles one-to-one specialist instrumental lessons before turning to ensemble work such as band and orchestra and finally to the generalist or specialist classroom.

This book is not a prescription for one particular way of teaching or learning, and it does not aim to critique, replace or change the excellent practices that are already on-going in the diverse world of music education and pedagogy. Rather, it offers something which is likely to be new to many teachers, and which they can add in to the mix.

​About our Hear, Listen, Play! workshop

In her book, Lucy examines how students in different contexts learn to play by ear. By replicating the original task used with students, our HLP workshop helps teachers to understand how they play by ear, raises awareness of other ways of learning music aurally and considers strategies to support students to engage with this method of musical learning which is central to the Musical Futures Informal Learning approach.
