Description

The article's core instructional element is a set of Erzurum folk songs, selected from a population of 240 provincial folk songs, that were content-analysed for modal structure and playing techniques and then adjusted to viola for use in individual instrument lessons. The experimental group practised "the adjusted form of the work" for one week, while the control group received works whose keys were carried to Do. The element is intended to raise playing skills, modal knowledge and motivation while transferring local culture.

Target Learners

  • 2nd-grade music education department students taking individual instrument viola lessons

Learning Goals

  • viola playing skills
  • modal (maqam) knowledge
  • instrument motivation
  • knowing and evaluating one's own culture
