Abstract

The research story, Jeremiah Jones and the Musical Crusade, as an example of resonant lifework, highlights various qualities and meanings that make up the musical life of a dedicated music student. Illuminations are presented in order to support the case for further understanding of the ways that music is both 'used' to structure life and as a component in personal identity formation. Developing further understanding of these matters is seen as vital for the future of music education. Importantly, much of the interpretive research process is apparent in the research text, as interactions between the participant and researcher are a storied component of it.
The narrative framework involved the construction of a storied research text from a synthesis of the meaningful connections, hidden significances and themes gleaned from a series of interviews with Jeremiah, the participant, and also from the researcher’s observations of him in musical performance and daily life situations.
