Summary/Abstract: Despite the exceptional interest in studying emotions in music, only a few music pedagogues have warned of the importance of this phenomenon in teaching music. The paper analyzes the results of empirical research to determine the experienced emotions on listening to the following musical examples: C. Saint-Saëns: Carnival of Animals, Finale; I. Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring, Introduction; J. Williams: Schindler’s List; F. Livadić: Nocturne in F-sharp minor; I. Malec: Lumina; and I. Krajač, K. Metikoš and M. Prohaska: Gubec-Beg, Jana’s Madness. The results of the research actualize the importance of students’ emotional response to a musical work and contribute to the efforts of individual music pedagogues to emphasize the need for a comprehensive reception of a musical work that will include emotional dimension in addition to knowledge and understanding.
