Sažetak
The aim of the European research project Schools@Concerts: Tuning up for the music experience was to introduce students to live classical concert in order to increase and enrich their musical experience, as well as to show whether classical concerts improve wellbeing in children in compulsory schools in Serbia, Croatia, and Poland. During 2018, students (64 in total) have visited three classical concerts organized in Belgrade (Serbia), Zagreb (Croatia) and Gdansk (Poland). Sample: 20 students aged 11 to 13 (Serbia), 36 students aged 12 to 15 (Croatia) and 8 students aged 10 to 11 (Poland). Pre-event and Post- event questionnaires and interviews for students, teachers and concert organizers were designed to gather information about participants’ music experiences, including preparatory and follow up activities. Serbian and Croatian students’ questionnaire and interviews generally show that music frees students from daily routines, helps them overcome sorrow, anger and to cope with stress. Still, while Serbian results show that most students think music helps them socially, Croatian results show that only half of the students think the same. Also, while Polish results show that only one student thinks music can relax him, the majority of Serbian and Croatian students think so. Students experienced classical concerts as: pleasant and enjoyable (Serbia), interesting and unforgettable (Croatia), exciting and relaxing (Poland). In interviews teachers underlined that classical concert enlarges students’ preferences for classical music (Serbia), particularly live performance (Croatia and Poland). Concert organizers highlighted that students heard some unusual ensemble (Serbia), as well as dancing and multimedia concert (Croatia). We assume that classical concerts can enrich students’ life and affect the psychological and social wellbeing, only if attending classical concerts is regular and frequent.
