vocal, instrumental, physical exercise and listening activities towards the unders-
tanding of art, active listening to music and singing and
their use as an autonomous
means of communication. In the period of elementary education, these musical acti-
vities become
content domains of music
education in the area of production, percep-
tion and refl ection (RVP 2006). However, pupils want to relax and sing songs which
they like and which are modern. They do not want to
talk about something nobody
is interested in and nobody listens to. Some pupils think there should be different
demands on “non-music” children or that music education should be only for those
who are interested in it. Nevertheless, the educational framework
has different output
requirements for all educated pupils. The pupils are expected to be able to fi nd the
relations between other types of arts,
follow the fl ow of music, recognize certain dan-
ces, judge the right style of a heard composition,
reproduce motives, themes and parts
of the compositions, create and
choose a right accompaniment, etc. (RVP 2006)
It seems that problems of music education are connected with its prestige which
is not high at the moment and so the pupils believe that the subject should entertain
them and enable them to relax. It is important that most
pupils are satisfi ed with
music education and according to their answers it is clear that they are mostly aware
of the contributions which the subject might bring them.
