Abstract:
World music has enjoyed increasing representation in the National Curriculum up to Key Stage 3. At the same time, music in higher education in the UK is becoming increasingly diverse, with degrees in popular music, world music and jazz becoming more commonplace. This, alongside the growing diversity of the population, supports arguments for introducing and maintaining a diverse music curriculum, particularly one that includes world music, throughout secondary education. The importance of world music in education has been advocated both in the UK (e.g. Wiggins (1996), Stock (1991)) and in other

Abstract:
The omnipresence of music in today's adolescent society in Australia is evidenced by the fact that adolescents, almost without exception, listen to and enjoy music throughout most of their leisure time, and indeed, much of their study time.
