Sažetak
One of the task of education is introducing pupils to works of art (Prendergast, 2009). In this way they acquire the skills needed for active participation in cultural and artistic activities. Pupils' participation in musical activities directly reflects the understanding of music art and the active response through music (Gaggioli, 2003). It starts by listening and analyzing music that can be complemented by music making. In the process of raising awareness of music by listening, pupils judge, analyze, compare and evaluate musical works. With music making activities the listening process enriches itself with a demonstration of what has been learned and created. By listening to music and analyzing, pupils will learn to perceive and understand music works, learning about music. This activity will have direct impact on their music making and on better understanding of music (Vidulin-Orbanić, 2013). Referring to the fact that in music teaching the emphasis is on introducing pupils to musical works of various genres, forms, styles and musical-stylistic features, by listening to music and analyzing musical works the pupils acquire basic musical knowledge and skills. Observing and explaining the expressive elements such as rhythm, melody, dynamics, tempo, musical form, instrumental and vocal ansamble, pupils get to know better the compositions. With the goal that pupils' knowledge became operational, they may continue to study these components by composing melodies and setting them in the framework of tonality, measure, tempo, dynamics, musical form. The main purpose of this presentation is to show how after listening and understanding music art pupils can compose and perform works of minor volume, creating and understanding the basic elements of musical works. The result of such work is a better understanding of musical elements and music in general, the demonstration of acquired knowledge, music making and active pupils' participation in the teaching process.
