CONNECTION BETWEEN MUSIC LESSONS AND INVOLVEMENT WITH MUSIC AFTER LEAVING SCHOOL
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2009, Vol 18, Issue 12
Abstract
The article deals with the relationship between experience and memories gained in music lessons of general education school and current music activity and attitude towards music and analyses the effect of that experience on musical behaviour in further life. The focus is on music teacher’s role in that process. The sample of the qualitative study consisted of 20 university students, ten of whom were actively involved with music (singing in the university choir) and ten were not. A phenomenographic approach was used to analyse the interviews. As the result of the analysis, four profles were developed – two of the profles characterising those involved with music and two those not involved with music. The profles are viewed in the article in the context of the experience of music lessons at school. Gaining awareness of those profles may help music teachers to understand different behaviours of pupils and their relationship with music as a subject, and create diverse learning situations for representatives of different profles.
