The National Standards for Music Education were formulated to ensure that every student will have the opportunity to participate actively in music programs. Comprehensive music education programs recognize an obligation to provide children with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand and enjoy music. This book targets music educators who are already familiar with basic ringing techniques, and who will benefit from detailed information on the benchmarks students should achieve in order to meet the National Standards. The book contains numerous musical examples.
