MUSIC EDUCATION IN PHILIPPINES PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS
To study music is to study the basics. Music is a comprehensive art - within its study
students come into contact with other basic areas of the curriculum: math, science, social studies,
languages and physical education. While music is a subject with its own body of knowledge,
and is inherently worth knowing, its comprehensive nature serves as a foundation for a unified
and comprehensive educational setting.
In 1963, DECS Memorandum #11, s.1963 was issued pointing out that Arts and Physical
Education in the elementary grades were often neglected for the sake of instructional and
administrative expediency. It called for the proper implementation of D.O. #1, s. 1957, singling
out Arts & Physical Education as the proper vehicle for DECS' cultural revival program. The
directive also aimed to make Art Education, Music and Physical Education required subjects in
the elementary grades. Under Arts and Physical Education, all such subjects were to be allotted a
40-minute and 50-minute instruction time in the primary and intermediate grades respectively. It
was further stated that the above mentioned subjects should not be sacrificed for the sake of any
other subjects in the elementary school curriculum. (DO Memorandum #1, s. 1963 - cultural
Revival. Through Art Education, Music and Physical Education in the Elementary Schools).
Bulletin #6, s.1959, titled Improving the Teaching of Music, was a follow up of D.O. #1, s.
1957, observations being that "music has for some years not been seriously taught". Prescribed in
this bulletin was for music to be combined with Art Education and Physical Education, and not
as erroneously concluded from the title 'Art Education and Physical Education' where Music
seemed to have been scrapped from the daily schedule of subjects. General Letter #23, dated
July 21, 1956 gave specific instructions that music should have a definite period of time on the
day's program in addition to its correlation with appropriate subjects.
As early as 1950, D.O. Memorandum #72, came out with a prescription of "Music courses in
the Secondary Schools' General Curriculum". Courses in Second, third and fourth year were
likewise suggested:
1. voice culture - for those inclined to singing
2. courses on orchestral instruments
3. courses on band instruments - for those who wish to learn the trombone, cornet, xylophone,
saxophone, etc. The explanatory work was either vocal or instrumental and should be for 6
weeks, 80 minutes a day.
The setback to the suggested music course offerings were and still is the absence of orchestral
and band instruments which were/are very expensive. Some sectors did come to have band
instruments via donations or private sponsorship as funding for their procurement was yet to be
appropriated.
The memo mentioned further that a school should not offer any music course unless a
qualified teacher is available. It deemed essential that a teacher of music must have a thorough
academic and professional training experience, a pleasant and dignified personality alongside the
provision of a well-equipped music room.
A subsequent bulletin #6, s.1959 from the Bureau of Public Schools, titled Improving the
Teaching of Music underlined that not any teacher can teach music. It states that a teacher of
Music should be one with a special aptitude, not only because he can sing or play an instrument
but also because he possesses a knowledge of Music reading and notation. If there is only one
qualified music teacher in a school, Music instruction may be given once or twice a week for the
total time allotted to the subject during the week.
The Bureau of Public Schools likewise encouraged the training of all music teachers:
consultants from the General Office, Music instructors from the nearest regional normal schools,
and lay music leaders of the community.
The increasing importance given to music education was reflected in the passage of R.A.
4723 (Music Law). Enacted in 1966, the Music Law was the first legislative Act in the history of
the country to directly benefit school music education. The law envisioned the upgrading of
Philippine Musical Culture through the improvement of Music instruction on the elementary and
secondary school levels of both public and private schools. The second Republic Act that has
benefited Music education is R.A. 5523. Enacted in 1968, the law has created various school
division positions. It specially provides for 10 music supervisory positions in ten school
divisions of the Bureau of Public Schools. The initial implementation of the above stated laws
has firmly rooted music in the curriculum of both public and private schools in the country. Not
until recently, the time allotted for each of the three subjects: Arts, Music and Physical
Education, were 40 minutes daily for Grades I-IV, and 50 minutes daily for Grade V-VI. With the
implementation of the Music Law, the subjects were subdivided into distinct areas, namely:
1. Music and Art
2. Physical Education
Implementing regulations of R.A. 4723 (Music Law) was embodied in the bureau of Public
Schools Circular #24, s.1967 but was rescinded by Department Order #10, s.1970 with the
advent of the 1970 Revised Elementary Education Program. The latter provides that Music and
Arts be treated as separate subject areas with Music allotted 3 days a week and Arts 2 days.
The Philippine Society for Music Education (PSME), a non-profit association composed of
music educators all over the country, had its beginnings on November 23, 1971. Its primary
intent was to improve music education in all its areas, to share new knowledge and ideas on
music and music education. Symposia, workshops and annual general assemblies marked the
infant years of PSME with Dr. Lucrecia S. Kasilag, now National Artist for music as founding
president. As a direct effect of its historic formation, three music organizations - the Philippine
Choral Conductors’ Association, the Philippine Society for Organists, and the Piano Teachers'
Guild of the Philippines were likewise founded. In November 7-9, 1975, the succeeding
president Dean Corazon S. Maceda spearheaded a workshop aimed at the formulation of goals of
Music Education in the Philippines. Twenty-nine workshop participants, all distinguished
Filipino educators, came up with well-articulated goals for elementary, secondary and tertiary
(music majors and none-music majors) level of music education. From 1975 onwards, PSME
continued on its mission to improve music education through yearly seminars and workshops
and lecture series, to help produce competent music teachers. One such notable program
undertaken under Dr. Loreto C. Gloria, was a nationwide scholarship program for public and
private teachers from elementary and high school. This program was implemented in cooperation
with the National Commission on Culture and the Arts (NCCA) and the Philippine Normal
University (PNU). To date, two groups of Scholars have completed their training while a third
batch is presently being readied for the second summer session by 1999, with completion seen by
summer of 2000. The Department of Education and Culture (DEC) issued an Order #21,
s.1973 which was a "Clarification on the Revised Physical Education and Health, Music Pre-
Military Training (PMT) and Scouting Program for School Year 1973-1974. The course name
was changed to Youth Development Training (YDT) to replace Physical Education, Health,
Music and PMT in the first to third years of high school. Weekly schedules of 40 minutes per
period were as follows:
First Semester Second
Semester
Scouting 2 days 1 day
Physical 1 day 2 days
Education
Health 1 day 1 day
Music 1 day 1 day

Citizens' Arm Training (CAT), replaced PMT, PE, Health and Music for the fourth year. A 40-
minute weekly schedule per period were to be followed for both semesters.
CAT 2 days
Physical 1 day
Education
 Health 1 day
Music 1 day

As a YDT component, Music Education was offered in all curriculum years. Approximately
65% of the total number of music pieces to be learned in each curriculum year should consist of
Philippine folk and composed music and the rest, foreign music, to include internationally
known music matters. The creative uni-segmented and integrative conceptual approaches are
suggested for music teaching-learning situations.
Meanwhile, in 1970-71, the Revised Elementary Education curriculum gave Music and Arts,
30 minutes per day, to schedule as follow:
First Semester Second
Semester
MUSIC 3 days 2 days
ART 2 day 3 days

Department of Education and Culture (DEC) Memorandum #65, s.1974 announced a "Third
National Seminar - Practicum in School Music Education ", sponsored jointly by DECS, the
Philippine National Society for Music Education and the UNESCO National Commission of the
Philippines, dated September 7-8, 1974. It was held at Teachers' Camp, Baguio city. The theme
was: "Innovative Musical Dimensions for the furtherance of the Quality of School Music
Education in the New Society" with foreign music experts as resource speakers.
The above national seminar-practicum came after the conclusion of a 5-year UP-BPS
(University of the Philippines and Bureau of Public Schools) Scholarship Program from 1968-
1973. Annual scholarship recipients were teachers teaching music both in the elementary and
secondary schools. The period covered 2 semesters and 1 summer with a stipend for books and a
living allowance including regular salaries. An average of 30 to 40 scholars a year attended the
program highly benefitting Music Education in the country.
1971 saw the start of the National Music Competitions as an annual undertaking aimed to
discover and nurture young music talents from among school children. Concerned music
educators of varied expertise and persuasions voluntarily came together to contribute their time
and experiences towards the yearly endeavor. Teachers prepared their choirs and students to
compete. The DECS in various regions through regional levels, and the Cultural Center of the
Philippines (CCP) was mainly responsible for the week-long National finals held every last week
of November. This coincides with the National Music Week (Presidential Proclamation #1173
dated August 7, 1973). From then on, the competition expanded to include not only children's
choirs but also solo instruments, piano solos, youth choirs, college choirs and eventually, also
included the rondalla competition.
In 1982, the Ministry of Education and Culture issued MEC Order #6, s.1982 outlining the
New Elementary School Curriculum (NESC). Beginning school year 1983-84, the new
curriculum was introduced by grade levels. The gradual implementation of NESC in Grades I
through Grade VI saw the absence of Music in Grades I and II. In the Revised Elementary
Education Curriculum effective 1970-71, time allotment (minutes daily) for Music and Arts was:
I II III IV V – VI
30 30 30 30 30

With the advent of the New Elementary School Curriculum effective school year 1983-84, time
allotment for Arts Music lost its identity with its marked absence in Grades I and II. Music for
the elementary grades was offered only from Grades III to VI.
 Time allotment - Minutes per week for Arts and Physical Education: and Physical Education
became:
I II III IV V – VI
40 40 40

Music lost its identity with its marked absence in Grades I and II. Music for the elementary
grades was offered only from Grades III to VI.
Time allotment - Minutes per week for Arts and Physical Education:
I II III IV V – VI
200 200 200

Equal distribution of time for Music, Arts and PE was on a 2-2-2 plan the whole year round. In
the mid-90's Physical Education regained its foothold in Grades I and II through Gr. VI with 120
minutes per week time allotment. Meanwhile Music and Arts remained integrated in Civic and
Culture in Grades I and II, while in Grade III and VI, they were eased out of the equal time
sharing and given only 80 minutes a week divided by the 2 areas, Music and Art. Music became
a 40-minute, once-a-week-subject per period. The preparation of students for Olympic
competitions became the thrust of DECS up to present.
The New Secondary Education Curriculum (NSEC) became effective by School Year 1989-
90. Physical Education, Health and Music, Citizen's Army Training (CAT) remained a
component of PEHM in the fourth year. Arts became integrated with Music in the 3rd and 4th
year levels.
Since 1973-74 with D.O. Memorandum #16. s.1973,"Classification on the Revised PE and
Health, Music, PMT and Scouting Program - Music was given a 40-minute once-a-week time
allotment at all levels. This continued with the 1989 NSEC but by 1997, under the Revised
Rating System, time allotment for PEHM/CAT was scheduled as follows:
First and Second Year
First Semester One day a week – 40
minutes
Second Semester Two days
(Health opposite Music
on a 1-2;2-1
arrangement)

Third Year
First Semester
Health 2 days (40 minutes)
Music 1 day as Music and Arts (40
minutes)
PE 2 days (40 minutes)

Second Semester
Health 1 day (40 minutes)
Music 1 day (40 minutes)
Music and Arts 1 day (40 minutes)
PE 2 days (40 minutes)
Fourth Year
Health 1 day 40 minutes
Music and Arts 1 day 40 minutes
Physical Education 2 days 60 minutes
CAT 1 day 80 minutes
