Song Acquisition among Rural Shona-Speaking Zimbabwean Children from Birth to 7 Years.
Kreutzer, Natalie Jones
Journal of Research in Music Education, v49 n3 p198-211 Fall 2001
Presents the results of a study that examined how children's melodic efforts resembled those of adults. Focuses on children, ages birth to seven (n=92), in Zimbabwe. Finds that the children's song acquisition was similar to children in other cultures, while these children were more accurate singers than their western counterparts. (CMK)
