Music Preference 30 who responded to announcements and advertisements for a piano concert, as well as friends, acquaintances, and extended family members of the performer. Thus, groups LE and UE represent the entire populations of particular grades and schools, groups MS and HS represent students who choose particular music classes, and group RA represents audience members who voluntarily choose to attend a concert. Although some of the groups are self-selecting, and thus may not be representative of the population as a whole, they do represent groups of interest to music teachers (students taking music classes in public schools) and performing musicians (audiences attending community music concerts). Demographic data for group RA. Demographic data were collected for group RA. After balancing the subgroups as required by the experimental design (see Experimental Plan, below), 122 audience members contributed data used in the study. Of these audience members, 67% were female and 33% male (n = 117). Age data is summarized in Table 1; audience members represent a broad spectrum of age groups. Audience members who listen to classical music rarely or never made up 19% of the respondents; 18% listen to classical music an average of once a month; 33% were weekly listeners; and 30% were daily listeners (n = 121). Those who indicated that they had attended no classical music concerts in the last year made up 27% of the responses; 50% had attended 1-5 concerts within the preceding year; 13% had attended 5-10 concerts; and 10% had attended more than 10 concerts. Those who indicated that they had taken no music classes in grades K-12 made up 64% of the audience; 25% had taken one or two years of music classes in grades K-12; and 12% had taken three years of music classes or more in grades K-12 (n = 110). Of audience members age
Music Preference 31 21-80, 53% indicated that they had taken no music classes at a college or university; 25% had taken 1-5 years of music classes at a college or university; 19% had taken 6-10 years of such classes; and 4% had taken more than 10 years of music classes at a college or university (n = 57). Audience members were asked to report the number of years they had taken private instrumental or vocal music lessons. Data was tabulated for the number of years of private study on respondents' main musical instrument (the instrument with the most years of private study). Thirty-six audience members did not respond to this question; many of these probably had no private lessons. Of those who responded to the question, no private music lessons (zero years) were indicated by 8%; 1-3 years of private music lessons were indicated by 33%; 4-6 years were indicated by 24%; 7-9 years were indicated by 12 percent; and 10-25 years were indicated by 20% (n = 86). The performer of these concerts had a local, rather than a national or international reputation, and, as the demographic data suggest, group RA may be representative of audiences at local or community concerts rather than the audiences of high profile, highly marketed events featuring musical artists of national or international prominence. Programs Musical repertoire for the programs was selected from the pianist's active recital repertoire. Repertoire consisted of these four works: 1. J.S. Bach: Capriccio on the Departure of a Beloved Brother 2. Beethoven: Fantasy, Op. 77 3. Liszt: Funérailles 4. Schuman: Carnaval
