Nursery School Education.
Partial Skill Development by Singing, Music and Movement
My field is specialized music training at nursery school age, which in addition to
making music attractive and enjoyable for children and cultivating the ’musical
mother tongue,’ involves developing musical skills and talents. Also, I study the
effects of the former on the development of the psychological functions by which
learning abilities are affected.(…)
The partial skills that make up the functions determining learning abilities can most
efficiently be developed by practising movements of various types. As musical skills
and abilities are manifested most frequently in vocalization and movement, in addi-
tion to its main target several elements of musical education can be used to develop
these partial skills.
The activity I have been pursuing for several decades focuses on a specific use of
the musical skills and abilities which spontaneously develop the psychic functions
responsible for learning abilities.
