Bai B. Formation of sound and timbre views of future teachers of music in the process of studying piano

The subject, actualized in this dissertation, is connected with the process of artistic performance during piano preparation of future teachers of music in Ukraine and China. The phenomenon of sound and timbre views in the context of the development of acoustical-damper system of the piano was examined and investigated carefully. Sound and timbre views are presented by the form of integral education, which consists of the following components: timbre-informational, operational, artistic-figurative, apperceptional-associative, executive-technological, creatively independent components. Pedagogical diagnosis of sound and timbre views is made due to cognitive information, operational, timbre-perceptual, motivational and creatively-performing, functional criteria. Experimental study proved the efficiency of gradual formation of sound and timbre views, particularly paying attention to such stages: analytical-reflexive, competent; executive-technological, developing, innovative-acoustic, creative. The method, used to form sound and timbre views of the future teachers of music of Ukraine and China, should be based on the anthropological, technological-innovative, synthesis, multimodal, competent, comparative approaches.
