Abstract

As part of the Music Culture course, teacher education students at the Faculty of Teacher Education of the University of Zagreb are obliged to attend classical and jazz music concerts organized by the faculty as a part of the Music Scene of the Faculty of Teacher Education.The paper aims to examine the attitudes and opinions of teacher education students about the importance and necessity of attending cultural events, especially concerts, in order to conduct music culture classes in primary education successfully and effectively.The results show that students who, to a greater extent, believe that it is necessary for teachers to actively attend classical music concerts in order to conduct music culture lessons successfully are the ones who listen to classical music more often themselves. There were positive correlations found between the attitude that, for the successful teaching of music culture, teachers must actively attend all kinds of musical events and the frequency of listening to classical music. There is also a statistically significant difference in the agreement with the statement that, in order to teach music culture classes successfully, it is necessary for teachers to actively attend all kinds of musical events, depending on whether students attend only classical music concerts or not.It is crucial to make students of teacher education studies culturally aware during their studies so that the significance of the perception and reception of culture, especially the musical one, is developed and encouraged in their future students.
