A teacher s approach to the teaching of music is greatly coloured by his/her own experiencewith music. When student-teachers embark on the journey of becoming educators, theyalready have a variety of previous individual experiences with music, and throughparticipation in their society and culture, they hold assumptions based on socialrepresentations of music, musicality and music education within their society.A person s relationship with music is often multi-faceted, based not only on previouseducational experiences, but also on experiences with music within the family, school andwider community. In addition, the status and function of different types of music within thesesettings can powerfully affect an individual s perspective on music.The findings in the study reveal how student-teachers approaches to music and musiceducation are formed in the interplay between their personal, educational and societalexperiences with music and music education. These three components jointly shape thecomplex web which illustrates the musical socialisation of student-teachers.
