Sažetak
The paper explores music preferences of elementary school pupils for classical music
and the influence of familiarity with music on their music preferences. As a part of
the research, a questionnaire, and a sound questionnaire as its integral part, was
administered to 238 pupils attending the second, the fifth and the eighth grade of
elementary school.
The results confirm that younger pupils, compared to the older ones, show greater
preferences for classical music. In addition, the influence of gender on the preferences
for classical music was also confirmed, while attendance of extracurricular music
lessons was not proven to be a significant predictor of the pupils’ preferences for
classical music. It was also noted that familiarity with music is a significant factor
influencing pupils’ music preferences. The results confirm that pupils show the lowest
music preferences for the 20th-century music, which has significant implications for
music-pedagogical theory and practice.
