description | This study sought to determine the influence of the teacher, the social
environmental, the nature of the instrument and the repertoire of the ensemble
on the Fom Three students' choice of the most preferred instrumental
ensemble. The instrumental ensemble in this study comprises of the kompn,
cakiempong, gamelm, keyboard and recorder ensembles. It also aimed to
determine which instrumental ensemble in schools is most preferred by the
students. It also sought to identifj, the reasons as to why certain factors had
significant influence on the students' choice of the most preferred
instrumental ensemble.
Questionnaires were distributed to 161 Form Three students who served as
subjects. The distribution of the questionnaire was to obtain feedback about
their choices for the tnost preferred instrutnental ensemble and the influence
of the selected factors on their choices. This study utilized statistical analysis
such as the descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression. This study
was carried out for over an established period of twelve sessions of music
lessons in Sekolah Menengah Kebangaan Cheras, Cheras (n=44), Sekolah
Menengah Kebangsaan Bandar Bani Sentul, Sentul (n=58), Sekolah
Menengah Kebangsaan Seksyen 19, Shah Alarn (n=43) and Sekolah
Menengah Kebangsaan Dato' Hamzah, Pelabuhan Klang (n= 16).
The research findings indicate that the most preferred instrumental ensemble
is the gumelan ensemble followed by the keyboard ensemble, kimpng
ensemble, cakfempong ensemble and lastly the recorder ensemble. The
findings also revealed that the teacher factor has siguificant influence on the
students' choice of the gamelan, kompang and the caklempong ensemble as
the most preferred instrumental ensemble. Whereby, the nature of the
instrument factor has significant influence on the students' choice of the
gamelan, keyboard and the konlpang ensemble as the most preferred
instnunental ensemble. The research findings also indicate that the repertoire
ofthe ensemble fBctor has significant influence on the students' choice of the
ga~treiat~au d the konlpang ensemble as the most preferred instrumental
ensemble. It is also discovered that all the factors do not have sigiificant
influence on the students' choice of the recorder ensenlble as the most
preferred instrumental ensemble.
It is hoped that this study will provide information to fill in the gap of
knowledge about the factors, which influence the students' choice of the most
preferred instrumental ensemble. These influential factors are important
because these factors will eventually be the intrinsic motivating factors that
can motivate the students thus sustaining their interest in the instrumental
ensemble learning. The sustenance of the interest can fhther lead them to
geater achievement in instrumental ensemble learning. Lastly, it is hoped
that the findings of this study will benefit the music teachers as well as for the
students and concerned parties who are directly or indirectly involved in the
music education. |
