Abstract

Wayang golek purwa is one of the traditional art performances of the Sundanese community that has a standardized structure and tetekon in its performance. However, along with the times that affect the way of thinking of the performers of wayang golek purwa art, there are changes in function and structure that affect the tetekon of the previous wayang golek purwa performance. The purpose of this study is to examine the changes in the value of tetekon in the art of wayang golek purwa related to the development of creativity and innovation from the young generation of puppeteers. This research uses descriptive qualitative method through observation, audio-visual analysis of wayang golek performances, and literature study on Wayang Golek Purwa puppetry. Based on these methods, it was found that there is a paradoxical phenomenon in Wayang Golek art: on the one hand, creativity plays an important role in maintaining the existence of Wayang Golek art, but on the other hand, it is often considered to violate tetekon or traditional rules. Tetekon needs to be interpreted not only as a standard rule, but as a principle that can provide space for creativity and innovation to maintain the relevance of Wayang Golek art.

Abstract

This study investigates the development of rhythmic control in drum learning through deliberate practice. The study addresses temporal instability, a common problem in early drum performance characterized by rushing, dragging, and inconsistent timing during repetitive execution. A qualitative educational intervention design was employed involving 15 students aged 9–12 years in a private drum learning setting. Data were collected through observations, performance recordings, and interviews across four instructional cycles. The findings indicate that rhythmic control develops through structured and error-focused practice rather than repetition alone. Tempo reduction, pattern segmentation, and immediate feedback enabled students to identify timing errors, improve temporal stability, and maintain synchronization with the metronome. Across the intervention, students demonstrated greater self-correction, improved timing awareness, and more consistent rhythmic performance. The findings suggest that rhythmic control involves not only tempo accuracy but also temporal self-regulation and integrated musical understanding. This study contributes to music education by proposing a developmental framework for rhythmic control in drum learning. The findings may serve as a pedagogical reference for drum educators in designing systematic instructional strategies to support rhythmic development and self-regulated learning

Abstract

This study aims to review and synthesize literature examining the relationship between music, learning motivation, and student engagement across educational settings. A literature review method was employed by analyzing twenty relevant articles on music learning. Thematic analysis was used to identify key conceptual patterns related to the role of music in enhancing motivation, supporting concentration, and influencing psychological mechanisms that foster student engagement. The findings indicate that music strengthens intrinsic motivation, regulates concentration, and promotes engagement through self-efficacy, flow experiences, and interpersonal support. Music is most effective when applied alongside responsive pedagogical strategies such as demonstration, guided practice, technological integration, and autonomy-oriented instruction. The study concludes that the intentional integration of music can improve learning quality and support the development of more student-centered instructional approaches

Abstract

This study examines how achievement orientations, goal setting practices, and motivational factors shape students’ engagement and musical development in private music learning. Using a qualitative design, data were collected through observations and semi structured interviews with twelve students aged eight to seventeen studying various instruments in one-to-one lessons. The findings show that mastery and performance orientations emerge through structured tasks, diagnostic-based sequencing, and individualized guidance. Clear short term and long term goals enhanced students’ focus and supported consistent practice routines, while teacher support and joyful learning principles helped sustain motivation when students faced technical challenges. Motivational barriers generally stemmed from task difficulty, unmet expectations, or irregular home practice but were mitigated through gradual task breakdown and targeted instruction. The study concludes that aligning achievement orientations, structured goal setting, and motivational supports is essential for maintaining engagement and promoting continuous musical growth in private music education.

Abstract

This study examines students’ musical development in a church-based band learning environment using a milestone framework to map technical, musical, and collaborative progress. Ten students from GJKI Bandung Raya participated in rehearsals involving instrument-specific training, group coaching, and arrangement work. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analysed using thematic procedures and Miles and Huberman’s analytic stages. Findings indicate that students demonstrated measurable growth in tempo stability, harmonic understanding, dynamic control, cue responsiveness, and role clarity. Collaborative progress was also evident, particularly in rhythmic coordination, structural navigation, and real-time problem solving during rehearsals. Challenges such as mid-song tempo instability, dynamic imbalance, and vocal inaccuracy required adaptive instructional adjustments that supported sustained improvement. The milestone approach proved effective for identifying learning indicators in community-based band settings. The study contributes practical and theoretical insights and suggests future development of structured milestone-based band curricula.

Abstract

The drill method has long been employed in music education, yet its pedagogical relevance remains debated due to its association with mechanical repetition and limited musical meaning. This study aims to re-examine the role of the drill method in music learning by synthesising pedagogical perspectives, instructional practices, and reported learning outcomes within existing scholarly literature. A qualitative literature review design was employed, involving systematic database searching, study selection based on predefined inclusion criteria, and thematic analysis of selected studies. Data were analysed using a structured analytical framework through coding, categorisation, and cross-study comparison to identify recurring pedagogical patterns and reported learning outcomes. The reviewed studies indicate that drill-based practice consistently supports technical stability, musical accuracy, notation literacy, and performance consistency across diverse educational contexts. However, its effectiveness is strongly dependent on instructional design and pedagogical integration. Drill contributes to meaningful musical development when aligned with clear objectives, guided feedback, and interpretative engagement, but becomes limited when applied as isolated repetition. This study positions drill as a foundational pedagogical strategy that supports progressive musical learning rather than as a purely mechanical method.
