His earliest musical experience was as a chorister at Canterbury Cathedral, after which he went on to the King's School, where he played violin and viola and composed. Study at Cambridge University, where he was a Choral Exhibitioner at Clare College under John Rutter, led to a career that combined performing, composing and teaching in schools and universities, and as a community musician. Prof. Bannan has developed a reputation for collaborative projects, both within and outside the education sector, including the creative partnership Compose Yourself! He has made a leading contribution to the establishment internationally of the significant new sub-discipline of Evolutionary Musicology, and has taught and published in the field of Teaching and Learning in Music arising from projects both in pedagogy and in reflective practice methodology. His performance experience includes professional choral and orchestral conducting, with special interests in early music, the 20th century, and new music. Formally conductor of The Esterhazy Singers in London, he now directs The Winthrop Singers of UWA and is on the music staff of St Mary's Cathedral, Perth. Prof. Bannan has taught at Eton College; Desborough School, Maidenhead; The Yehudi Menuhin School; the London College of Music; and Oxford Brookes and Reading Universities in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9.9 x 6.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 01, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43729317462151,"sku":"9780190932053","price":59.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/ZynMA-8_PK9780190932053.webp?v=1768280760","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/first-instruments-teaching-music-through-harmony-signing-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
