Country music’s student-age fanbase is growing rapidly, but it remains largely excluded from the school music curriculum. This presentation offers some considerations for country music’s possible inclusion in the music classroom with particular attention to three concerns: the practicality of teaching country, the tricky politics of country, and the implications of incorporating country into the curriculum for music education philosophy.
