A Survey of the Current Organization and Training of String Orchestra at the Elementary and Junior High Schools in Kaohsiung

To increase the trend of placing more importance on arts and humanity in the current wave of educational reform, Ministry of Education endeavors to promote the "one school, one art group" project to realize the education of the arts and humanity and to urge the necessity of interdisciplinary teaching in the art category, in combination with the "One person, one musical instrument" project to pursue a wider range of learning. In an environment that art subject and after class activities used to be neglected but now attract more attention, string orchestra is gradually being developed.
The members of junior high school and elementary school string orchestras are mostly the basic members of senior high school orchestras and even the music majors in universities. The promotion of basic string education will be beneficial to a higher level of the string music. The first chapter mainly researches into the motivation, purpose, objects, scope and method of this study. The second chapter primarily focuses on the understanding of the development of string orchestras in other countries, and the approach of development, function and meaning of string orchestras in Taiwan. The third chapter introduces string orchestras in junior high school and elementary school, including the preparation of the string orchestra, the recruitment of members, the training and the teaching materials applied in an orchestra, and so on. The fourth chapter explores the current situation of the junior high school and elementary school string orchestras in Kaohsiung city, including current teaching conditions, practicing repertoires, teaching materials, the problems encountered, and so on. Conclusion and suggestions are proposed in the fifth chapter .The development of string orchestras in Taiwan have gradually matured with an effort from many forerunners and string teachers in recent years. As a music educator, I hope that more relevant information about the teaching situations in junior high school and elementary school string orchestras in Kaohsiung City can be acquired through this study and that I can make a contribution to string music.
