This book focuses on narrative forms of research and inquiry in music education. As narrative approaches gain momentum, questions of methodology become salient. This research anthology highlights a diverse array of narrative methodologies and offers strategies for new researchers. The authors reflect transparently on how they did their narrative analyses, how they position themselves, and which narrative tradition(s) they align with. In this book, editors and authors aim at conceptualizing and clarifying narrative approaches in music education, showing how narrative thinking can be combined with theoretical stances such as discourse analysis and phenomenology. The book demonstrates how awareness of multi-layered dialogical meaning production can inform narrative research. It also addresses performative narratives of musicians and educators. The authors forefront narrative research methods as highly valuable for arts-based research, because of their potential for being expressive and performative, as well as conceptual.
