Effects of Instruction and Task Format on Preschool Children's Music Concept Discrimination.
Sims, Wendy L.
Journal of Research in Music Education, v39 n4 p298-310 Win 1991
Describes two studies of young children's ability to identify single and combined elements in response to music activities. Reports that children were better able to identify single than multiple elements. Concludes that children's ability to identify elements in their singing develops sooner than the ability to focus on elements in music they hear. (SG)
