PEDAGOGICAL VALUES IN EASTERN AND WESTERN MUSICAL CULTURE: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS

Abstract

This article explores the pedagogical values embedded in Eastern and Western musical traditions and examines their role in shaping cultural identity, artistic expression, and educational practices. By conducting a comparative analysis, the paper highlights how historical, philosophical, and socio-cultural contexts influence the ways music is taught and learned. The study argues that the dialogue between Eastern and Western pedagogical approaches can lead to more holistic methods of music education, where tradition and innovation are integrated to cultivate both technical mastery and cultural sensitivity.
