Challenges and tension fields in classical instrumental group tuition: interviews with Swedish Art and Music School teachers
(2023) In British Journal of Music Education 40(2). p.168-180- Abstract
- Group teaching is rapidly spreading across the world, but little research has been conducted to investigate its impact on students’ musical abilities in comparison to inclusion in group tuition contexts. This article investigates how music teachers from the classical orchestra instrumental tradition discuss group tuition. Three focus group interviews were conducted with participants from one Art and Music School in Sweden. The results show a tension field between progression and inclusion as well as different views on the definition of these concepts. These differing views on teaching quality imply a balancing act for the different agents within the profession.
- Abstract (Swedish)
- Gruppundervisning sprids snabbt över världen, men lite forskning har utförts för att undersöka dess inverkan på elevers musikaliska förmågor jämfört med inkludering i gruppundervisningssammanhang. Den här artikeln undersöker hur musiklärare från den klassiska orkesterinstrumentala traditionen diskuterar gruppundervisning. Tre fokusgruppsintervjuer genomfördes med deltagare från en kulturskola i Sverige. Resultaten visar på ett spänningsfält mellan progression och inkludering samt olika syn på definitionen av dessa begrepp. Dessa olika syn på undervisningens kvalitet innebär en balansgång för de olika aktörerna inom professionen.
