Music Education And Creativity

Creativity has a different definition. There is no one single definition that can represent different understandings about creativity. This is due to two reasons.

First, as a "hypothetical constructs", creativity is a complex psychological domains and multidimensional, that explains a variety of different interpretations.

Second, definitions of creativity put pressure varies, depending on the theoretical basis of the definition of who is a mold maker.

Definitions of creativity can be distinguished into the dimensions of person, process, product and press. Rhodes cites the fourth dimension of creativity as "the four P's of creativity". Definition that emphasizes creativity in person dimensions proposed by Guilford: creativity on capacity features his creativity. Other definitions put emphasis on process: creativity is a real person in the process of eloquence, and the flexibility originalitas think. Ability to produce something new in life.

The bottom line is creativity's ability to produce something new, whether it be an idea as well as real work, which is relatively different from what preceded it or a part of the creative product. The existence of creative products can be new or unprecedented. But usually people look at the creative product has a new nature and that the marked products, processes or creative people.

New attribute has several features such as:

• Its new products at all that did not previously exist
• Products with new properties as a result of a combination of pre-existing products
• a new product as a result of a renewal (innovation) and development (evolution) of an existing case.

In the field of music, as in the case of dance, chemistry or mathematics, art, and poetry, there is a specific term creativity from all sorts of fields. In music, we're talking about sound, or create, improvise, arransemen, catering and so on.

Mozart is a composer who makes or creates many musical compositions, among them the Sonata. As revealed by Elliot (1995), that drawing, writing, speaking, breathing, and so is the medium term creativity analogy, because according to the Elliot case individually controlled by the individual. But the creativity of what we mean when Mozart created music composition?

According to Elliot (1995), creativity has a relationship with a tangible product. So in the context of Mozart, we use the term creativity associated with tangible products, namely the availability of music composition Sonata.

As explained in the definitions above, including Elliot creativity, creativity that make or do something that results are the product of expensive yangtangible value, usefulness, and uncommon.
