Abstract

Musical preferences serve adolescents as an indicator of social identity and
contribute to a sense of belonging to a particular peer group, which is of great
importance at that age. Within the framework of this paper, research was conducted
with the aim of determining the differences in musical preferences and culture of
listening to music between two groups of students; in final grades of primary general
education schools and music schools. The online survey, which took place in 2020
and 2021, included 200 students in final grades of primary general education
and music schools from five Croatian counties. The research results showed the
following: music school students prefer art and pop music and general school
students prefer rock and turbo-folk music; the vast majority of students listen to
music passively and daily; one-third of music school students and the vast majority
of general school students do not attend classical music concerts, while they go to
popular music concerts in equal proportions; almost all students stated that the
popularity of a song does not affect their musical preferences.
