How can music be taught musically? Topics covered include: the place of music in the curriculum; the mature of musical learning; planning, managing and assessing musical learning; school examinations and music; music outside of the curriculum. One of the main premises of the book is that music needs to be taught 'musically', with specific reference to both the nature of music itself and its metaphorical significance. It is important that music itself guides what goes on in the music classroom if we are to motivate our pupils and help them to fulfil their potential as musicians.
Frank Budgen's "James Joyce and the Making of Ulysses", first published in 1934, is the only first-hand account we have of the growth of Joyce's great work. The record of the painter's friendship with Joyce in Zuerich in 1918-19, when Ulysses was being written, it is also an acute critical commentary on the novel itself.

A book for young children. Repeated usage of sentences with the same structure makes the book a good resource for language teaching. More than that, the storyline is in itself well worth exploring with children.
