최근에 일고 있는 음악영재교육에 대한 몇 가지 제안 = Audition and Education of the Gifted Children in Music

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The gifted or talented in music are students who have a high level potential to learn music. Although a student who demonstrates a high level of music achievement must also have a high level of music aptitude, it is not necessarily true that a student who demonstrates a low level of music achievement must also have a low level of music aptitude. Music achievement is a measure of what a student has learned about music. If a student has not have appropriate informal guidance or formal instruction in music, the student with high music aptitude can have a low level of music achievement. So we should develop a method of testing to select children who have musical potential ability. As one of the testing methods, there are some kinds of musical aptitude tests. But I have a doubt if they are effective as a discovering method of children's potential, because the musicality or music aptitude, musical potential ability, any how, is not revealed as itself. It is developed with experience, never revealed without previous experience. So I think the interview is more important in the audition. During the interview, the teacher should discover children's musical resourcefulness and creative responses and find the flexible way to be adapted to suit the experience and personality of individual children.
In the education of the gifted in music, the educational environment and condition is very important. The greatest artists read many kinds of philosophical books, talked and exchanged their experience with other artists from other genres. A high level of cultural life has been the abundant resource for their creativity. The cultural environment of our childeren is not appropriate for future artists. Their life is far away from the nature, they rarely read books. Computer games and all kinds of private education after school drained them of all the energy. The education for the gifted in music should provide the abundant cultural environment so that they can develop their potential creativity and have the responsibility and spontaneous sprit as a artist.
