ABSTRACT

In a multicultural society, multicultural education is essential as it helps students better understand and respect people from different cultural backgrounds, and promotes cross-cultural communication and understanding. Piano is an important musical instrument and a popular one among many people. In universities, piano courses are also very popular. However, there are still some issues with the current piano curriculum, such as the lack of multicultural education content and understanding of the needs of students from diverse cultural backgrounds. The main purpose of this paper is to explore the importance of multicultural education in university piano courses and propose corresponding improvement strategies. Through analyzing the current situation of piano curriculum in universities, this paper aims to provide insights for multicultural education in university piano courses and provide reference and inspiration for the reform and development of piano education in universities.
