Pitt, J. (2024) Introduction to the special issue: posthuman perspectives for music education. Music Education Research, 26 (3) pp. 205-208. ISSN 1461-3808 (print) 1469-9893 (online)
Abstract
It has been an honour and privilege to work on this special issue for Music Education Research in the year that the journal celebrates its 25th birthday. The issue’s call for papers came in response to an emergent strand of research presentations at the RiME conference in April 2023 that worked with ideas from posthuman, postqualitative research paradigms. The assembled papers in the issue convey the perspectives for music education research from posthumanism at this moment in music education research’s chronology. The assemblage proposes ideas and approaches to research that look beyond the human towards a multispecies storying of music as part of the world’s ongoing materialisation. Following the intention of Issue 1 of this volume, I hope this second special issue will continue ‘to generate ripples of new thinking and research’ (Stakelum and Tarrant 2024) for music education research. The articles are grouped around four themes: Voices and voicing; Towards posthuman research for music education; Considering music teaching; and Early childhood music education. ******* This introduction to the special issue is available open access at the Official URL given below *******
