Abstract

This issue of the Journal of Music History Pedagogy honors Douglass Seaton, Warren D. Allen Professor of Music at The Florida State University (FSU), for his long service to musicology and to the pedagogy of music history. In these articles, we propose creative solutions to pedagogical issues, recognizing in the process that the skills needed to arrive at these solutions were nurtured by Douglass during our time at FSU. This issue also marks Douglass Seaton’s first as Reviews Editor for this journal.
