Abstract:
The article points at the differences between music achievements and music aptitudes claiming that music achievements arę intellectual, while music aptitudes are spontaneous and occur in the entire body. The author also shows the importance of testing the music aptitude and presents tests useful for this purpose (e.g. PMMA, IMMA, MAP and AMMA). He says that music aptitude tests may be used to identify students with high overall music aptitude, but they may also be administered to focus on tonal and rhythm aptitudes.
