Choosing twelve illustrative songs, John Potter offers a personal tour of the vibrant tradition of song, from John Dowland's "Flow My Tears? to George Gershwin's "Summertime.? Throughout, he reveals who wrote and sang these masterpieces?revealing aspects of our common musical humanity as the story evolves from the Middle Ages to the present.

It constructs a narrative thread and a critical synthesis from a sociocultural account of the memes and stereotypical positions around learning, media and technology in the digital age, and will be of great interest to academics interested in the mechanics of learning and the effects of technology on the education experience.

Why do singers sing in the way they do? Why, for example, is western classical singing so different from pop singing? These questions are addressed by John Potter in this fascinating exploration of the history of singing styles.

Community Service Volunteers is known nationally for its citizenship and community learning schemes, and provides a support and consultancy service for schools, education authorities and government. This book is based on that experience and carries
