Abstract
ABSTRACT The study aims to investigate the impact of a specially designed intervention programme on middle school students’ creative thinking and musical experience. The study was conducted among 120 students (SD = 13.4) at middle music schools in the PRC. The instruments included the Creative Personality Scale (CPS) and the Scale of Musical Experience (SME). On the CPS post-test, the control group demonstrated the same creativity, suggesting the impossibility of independent development of creative abilities within an educational institution. The influence group demonstrated increased medium creativity (10.0%) and strong creativity (11.1%). SME post-test in the control group suggests that poor musical experience fell by 11.4%, medium experience increased by 6.4% and strong musical experience increased by 5.0%. The influence secured the dominance of the medium musical experience, with poor musical experience reduced by 22.3% and strong experience increased by 15.7%. The present findings can enhance scientific knowledge about classical music practices and their adoption within educational institutions. The practical significance of the study lies in the fact that creativity-oriented practices can be integrated into music schools.
