Abstract

Many adults do not see themselves as musical, and about 17% believe they are tone deaf. People who identify as tone deaf often believe this condition is congenital and permanent and prevents them from ever singing accurately. In many early childhood music (ECM) classes, adults participate as musical models, interacting with their children by moving, chanting, vocalizing, and singing. Using phenomenological inquiry, we explored the lived experiences of six adult self-identified nonmusicians/nonsingers as they made music with their child over the course of a 10-week session of ECM. Participants reported changes in their thinking about what makes someone a musician, evolving feelings about their singing voices, and increased enjoyment of singing and willingness to sing. We conclude with implications for ECM teachers and other music educators working with adults who see themselves as unmusical.
幼儿音乐课中 "非音乐家 "和 "非歌唱家 "成年照顾者的生活经历
许多成年人不认为自己是音乐家,约有 17% 的人认为自己是音盲。被认定为音盲的人通常认为这种情况是先天性的、永久性的,使他们永远无法准确地唱歌。在许多幼儿音乐(ECM)课程中,成人作为音乐模特参与其中,通过移动、吟唱、发声和歌唱与孩子们互动。在为期 10 周的幼儿音乐课程中,我们采用现象学调查的方法,探索了六位自认为是非音乐家/非歌唱家的成年人在与孩子一起创作音乐时的生活体验。参与者报告说,他们对 "什么是音乐家 "的思考发生了变化,对自己歌声的感受也发生了变化,对唱歌的乐趣和唱歌的意愿也有所提高。最后,我们总结了 ECM 教师和其他音乐教育工作者对那些认为自己不懂音乐的成年人的启示。
