The Thesis for Candidate of Pedagogical Sciences degree in specialty 13.00.02 – Theory and Methods of Musical Education. – National Pedagogical Dragomanov University. – Sumy State Pedagogical University named after A. S. Makarenko. ‒ Sumy, 2021.
The thesis is devoted to the problem of music and style shaping of teenage notions in collective music-making. The theoretical principles of music and style shaping of teenage notions have been articulated. The content of teenage music and style notions is revealed as the synthesized complex of artistic and sound images that are formed on the basis of the intonation idea as a result of musical thinking operations. The structure of the investigated phenomenon comprises necessary and cognitive, operating and technological, regulative and evaluating components.
The features of collective music-making and its influence on the music and style shaping of teenage notions in music education institution have been identified. It is found out that collective music-making is a kind of interpersonal communication, a form of collective music activity displaying knowledge, skills, and abilities of all the group members in the process of emotional expressive, interpretatively defined, ensemble agreed performance of musical works. The positive influence of chamber orchestra activity on the process of music and style shaping of teenage notions have been manifested.
The methods of music and style shaping of teenage notions in collective music-making and pedagogical conditions of its effective realization in the music education institution have been developed and theoretically grounded. These pedagogical conditions are the following: creation of motivating and stimulating environment of the educational process to realize the importance of style relevant performance of the orchestral musical works, the integrated application of various forms of educational activity and its variability, to ensure creative interaction of collective participants, teachers, and teenage students, in the process of mastering of style relevant performance of chamber orchestra music. The methods of music and style shaping of teenage notions in collective music-making are developed and theoretically grounded on the basis of the context, learner-centered, and activity approaches. These methods involve three stages: adaptation and information, deepening and analytic, productivity and synthesizing.
The criteria of music and style notion formation of teenage students, chamber orchestra participants of a music education institution have been determined, in particular: a measure of interest in a conscious style relevant performance of orchestral musical works; the degree of mastering musical-analytical and musical-performing skills necessary for style relevant performance of chamber orchestra music; ability to diagnose and improve the quality of their own style relevant performance of chamber orchestral music. The shaping levels of the investigated phenomenon were defined: high, medium, and low.
The efficiency of methods and pedagogical condition of music and style shaping of teenage notions in the process of chamber orchestra activity in music education institution has been experimentally tested.
Key words: musical style, teenage music and style notions, collective music-making, pedagogical conditions, methods of music and style shaping of teenage notions in collective music-making.
