Abstract

The cultivation of inner hearing is one of the important components of music skills learning and mastery. Nowadays, music teachers begin to pay attention to students' inner hearing, but the current lack of effective training methods are available for teaching in China. Although there are many teaching methods to study inner hearing theories at home and abroad, none is based on low-grade music classes in primary school. In terms of physical development rules, the earlier the music needs to be learned, the better. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to provide a set of feasible teaching methods suitable for junior primary school students (6-8 years old) to cultivate music inner hearing, and to provide a feasible training method for improving the inner hearing of the lower grade of primary schools in China.
