- Summary:
-
The newly burgeoning field of music psychology, which examines musical thought and behavior from a scientific perspective, has presented pedagogues with new opportunities to explore how humans learn music. The scientific study of violin playing builds upon the work of past pedagogues by quantifying and complementing teaching directives that have traditionally been gained through experience. Moving towards a pedagogy informed in part by science could not only improve the efficacy of playing and teaching the violin but also help minimize injury. As technology advances rapidly, it has become impossible to keep up with the latest innovations and the language employed. The goal of this document is to help close the chasm between research and practice by presenting violinists and pedagogues with a series of pedagogical implications drawn from pertinent music psychology research.
While the historical treatises of the last four centuries have served as the basis of pedagogical scholarship, the technology of today could provide new answers and possibilities to bring about a more effective, safe, and evidence-based tradition. Future research suggestions are made. Key words: psychology of music, violin pedagogy..
