Özet

Children's songs are the most fundamental materials that facilitate the transfer of target behavior aimed to be taught to the students within the music education process. It is also possible for the children's songs to be utilized at different phases of music education. Nevertheless, the use of songs in instrument training is noticeably significant. Similarly, the use of songs in instrument education is equally crucial since they proceed from the familiar melodies to the unfamiliar ones. The activities such as singing, playing, storytelling etc. included in the Violin A book, which has been developed for the initial stage together with the Colourstrings approach for violin education aim to help the students to enjoy the violin education. As far as this point of view is concerned, it is anticipated that identification of the songs of the Colourstrings approach in the instrument training methods and writing Turkish lyrics for these songs will improve the utility of this approach in music education in Turkey. The present study was implemented in an attempt to adapt the songs present in the Violin A method, which was used at the beginning level of violin education within the Colourstrings Approach, one of the new approaches in our country's music education, into Turkish within the framework of Peter Low's pentathlon principles. As far as this study is concerned, the songs in the Violin A book arranged in line with the Colourstrings approach were identified, the contents of these songs were tabulated, and Turkish lyrics were written in line with the rules of prosody as well as within the framework of Peter Low's pentathlon principles.
