초록
The purpose of this study was to examine culture-specific characteristics of music education in US-based Korean preschools. Another objective is to examine how cultural identity and teachers’ beliefs regarding education are reflected in US-based Korean preschools’ musical practices. Results indicate that Korean preschools’ music practices are heavily influenced by Korean culture. A unique finding is that many Korean preschools have religious ties, and that these affiliations heavily influence their music education. Music tends to be used as a tool to disseminate Korean culture, rather than to teach it for the purpose of providing music education. From an educational point of view, such results indicate that early childhood music educators should strive for greater professional development and vocally advocate the importance of providing quality music education during students’early years in Korean preschools.
