We first interviewed three schoolchildren about their experience learning an instrument for three years in the music club, and analyzed their discourses. Based on what the children said, we make the following observations:1)In order to maintain a positive attitude toward learning an instrument, children will need to be motivated in different ways, and their motivations will change as they develop physically and mentally.2)By performing in an orchestra children will learn to differentiate one part from others in the ensemble. Children will not be able to do this easily or immediately. It will take time and experience. We then tested 4-6 grade schoolchildren belonging to the instrumental music club for their ability to identify different parts in a symphony. We hoped that doing so would shed light on how children acquire this ability. We arrived at the following conclusions:1)The more experience children have performing in an ensemble, the greater their ability to differentiate one part from another in the music they listen to.2)Through experiences of performing music in an ensemble, children acquire the ability to identify important elements in a musical work. This helps them to become more creative in their musical expression.Abstract This paper, based on a case study of an instrumental music club at R Elementary School, verifies that the process of learning instruments, in an instrumental ensemble in particular, has beneficial effects on musical and mental development in childhood.
