Individuell utveckling i grupp - sångundervisning tillsammans med och genom andra

Abstract
Title: Individual development in group - voice lessons together with and through others.

The purpose of this study is to, from a life-world phenomenological point of view, document how singers experience their vocal technical and musical learning in group and in to relate this to their experience of a private lesson and to study what factors have been decisive for these experiences. This study is qualitative and was carried out as an action research study with a focus group method in a project-choir and four groups attending group lessons in voice (two groups also attended private lessons). In addition to a questionnaire and group discus-sions that have been transcribed, the empiric data has been collected from studies about the Italian... (More)
Title: Individual development in group - voice lessons together with and through others.

The purpose of this study is to, from a life-world phenomenological point of view, document how singers experience their vocal technical and musical learning in group and in to relate this to their experience of a private lesson and to study what factors have been decisive for these experiences. This study is qualitative and was carried out as an action research study with a focus group method in a project-choir and four groups attending group lessons in voice (two groups also attended private lessons). In addition to a questionnaire and group discus-sions that have been transcribed, the empiric data has been collected from studies about the Italian school of singing, learning in choir and adjacent areas such as linguistic, brain research and experimental psychology. The result shows the following positive aspects of tuition in a group: the mutual study of one another gives an increased sensibility to one’s own bodily (aural-visual-kinesthetic) experience as well as to that of the others; the mutual reflection helps the students to increased self-comprehension, interpreting vocal-technical problems as “general” and thus less “loaded” and visualizes the “non-reflected learning” in a mimes process; decontextualisation and depersonifying personal vocal technical problems give a strengthened self image and thus the possibility for the unsure singers also to become donors in the group. A decisive factor in this matter is the feeling of security in the group. (Less)
Abstract (Swedish)
Syftet med denna studie är att ur ett livsvärldsfenomenologiskt perspektiv dokumentera sång-ares upplevelse av sitt sångtekniska och musikaliska lärande i grupp och i förekommande fall sätta detta i relation till deras upplevelse av en enskild undervisning, samt att studera vilka faktorer som kan ha varit utslagsgivande för dessa upplevelser. Studien är kvalitativ och genomfördes som aktionsforskning med fokusgruppmetod i en projektkör och fyra grupper med gruppundervisning i sång (varav två även hade enskild undervisning). Förutom från en enkät och inspelade och transkriberade gruppdiskussioner har empiri hämtats ur studier om den italienska sångskolan, lärande i kör och angränsande områden som lingvistiken, hjärn-forskningen och...

Syftet med denna studie är att ur ett livsvärldsfenomenologiskt perspektiv dokumentera sång-ares upplevelse av sitt sångtekniska och musikaliska lärande i grupp och i förekommande fall sätta detta i relation till deras upplevelse av en enskild undervisning, samt att studera vilka faktorer som kan ha varit utslagsgivande för dessa upplevelser. Studien är kvalitativ och genomfördes som aktionsforskning med fokusgruppmetod i en projektkör och fyra grupper med gruppundervisning i sång (varav två även hade enskild undervisning). Förutom från en enkät och inspelade och transkriberade gruppdiskussioner har empiri hämtats ur studier om den italienska sångskolan, lärande i kör och angränsande områden som lingvistiken, hjärn-forskningen och experimentalpsykologin. Resultatet visar på följande positiva aspekter i en gruppundervisningssituation: det ömsesidiga studerandet av varandra ger en ökad sensibilise-ring för såväl den egna kroppsliga (auditiva-visuella-kinestetiska) upplevelsen som för de andras; en gemensam reflektion hjälper eleverna till ökad självförståelse, lyfter fram sångtek-niska problem som "allmänna" och därmed mindre "laddade" och synliggör det ”oreflekterade lärandet” i mimesprocessen; en dekontextualisering och avpersonifiering av individuella sång-tekniska problem ger stärkt självbild så att även osäkra sångare blir givare i gruppen. En ut-slagsgivande faktor är tryggheten i gruppen. (Less)
