A Way of Music Education as a Way of Life
View through CrossRef
This chapter recaps the idea that a triad of classic Chinese sources (Yijing, classic Confucianism, and classic Daoism) forms the basis of a philosophy of music education, which is presented as a trilogy (change, balance, and liberation). It highlights the importance of persistent improvement and iterates that the human spirit is at the center of this philosophy. While the classic wisdoms are ancient, the human spirit transcends time and space. The human spirit is preserved regardless of the changes that occur in the society, culture, or everyday materials, and it is bestowed in music and music education. To live a proactive musical life is to enable musical liberation and to promote prosperity in life. In a state of liberation, humans are able to do anything as wished only within the bounds of humanly dao and heavenly dao.
