Summary/Abstract: One’s native musical idiom is of great importance for the growth and development of a child. However, despite the frequent mention of this concept in the methodological literature, we cannot find it clearly defined anywhere. Therefore, in this study, we first defined the native musical idiom through a multidisciplinary approach, then we pointed out its role in the development of the ability to perceive (the melody, harmony and rhythm), the acquisition of songs, rhythmic abilities and music memory, and then emphasized its role in the acquisition of new music material. The ultimate goal of this study is to indicate the necessity of establishing beginner music education classes in elementary schools (first and second grade) on material which represents the native musical idiom of the environment in which a child is growing up.
