Our Name

Our Mission

	Why is there a "K" in our name? We concur with educator and music philosopher Christopher Small in his book Musicking which suggests that music should be ‘viewed as an act instead of a thing. Who is doing it? Where? And who is listening?’ We begin to understand music as a verb instead of a noun. Small states that "the act of musicking establishes in the place it is happening a set of relationships, and it is in those relationships that the meaning of the act lies".
The interaction established during the act of making or learning about music becomes the primary concern for all our Music Websites. With this view, we begin to understand the relationship between music, people, history and the larger culture.
How do you pronounce our name? The "K" is silent so it's simply spoken as "Music • Ed".

MusickEd.com embraces technology as a tool to establish relationships between students, educators, and music enthusiasts of all ages, interests, and levels of ability. The MusickEd.com global community provides members the ability to interact and access quality music software, support, and services.
