THE MUSICALITY OF CHAMBER MUSIC IN THE CONTEXT OF MODERN MUSIC EDUCATION: INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO PROCESSING AND ANALYSIS

Abstract

In modern music education, the problem of developing musicality through familiarity with chamber music is becoming particularly relevant. The latest research shows that traditional teaching methods do not fully reveal the potential of chamber genres for the formation of musical thinking and perception. The purpose of this work is to develop an innovative approach to the analysis and processing of chamber music aimed at maximizing its educational effect. The objectives of the study include: 1) identification of the key elements of musicality developed in the study of chamber works; 2) creation of an algorithm for multilevel analysis of chamber music; 3) empirical testing of the developed methodology. The research methodology is based on a combination of musicological, psychological, pedagogical and statistical approaches. The procedure includes a theoretical analysis of the literature, expert interviews (n=15), a pedagogical experiment (n=120) and a factor analysis of the data obtained. The results show that the application of the developed analysis algorithm increases the level of development of the fret sense by 28%, harmonic hearing by 34%, and polyphonic thinking by 41% (p<0.01). A qualitative analysis of teachers’ feedback (n=15) confirms the effectiveness of the methodology. The theoretical significance of the work consists in clarifying the musicological and psychological-pedagogical foundations of the development of musicality. The practical value is associated with the possibility of introducing the developed methodology into the music education system. Promising areas of research include: 1) adaptation of the algorithm to other musical genres; 2) cross-cultural testing of the technique.
