Summary/Abstract: The main tasks of school music education are to help children to find their own musical preferences, to encourage them for musical activities and to support their total development. However, every third Finnish child in school music lessons is educated to be unmusical. It has a harmful effect on children’s musical self-concept and behaviour.
