[Campbell, Patricia Sheehan, 2008, Great minds on music in education, Musician & Teacher: An Orientation to Music Education, pp.16-39]



     This chapter in Campbell's book was very interesting as it approached different angles to get opinions from "Great minds" on music. She took a look at 3 different "mindsets on music". First being "Ancient Minds on Music", then "Later Minds on Music", "Musician's mind on music". Campbell also talks about the "Precious Presence" that music has in life. 
     I don't really have personal connections to what Campbell has talked about. The closest I have came is through Mr.Neiman's MTAP class where we talked about the colonial start in music. I personally found that discussion to be interesting. 
     I didn't really consider it to be a necessary agree or disagree type of article. I found this article to be more of a historical informational article. I would definitely consider using this article later on for referral for making a presentation or to use it an a lesson with my students in the future.
