The primary purpose of this study was to determine the current status of piano instruction in Penang, Malaysia and to explore the influence of a uniquely British tradition of music exams in a pluralistic and postcolonial Malaysian society. Private piano education in Malaysia is essentially peripatetic and is primarily dominated by foreign music examination boards. Despite achieving its independence since 1957, the vestiges of British colonialism is still very apparent, permeating all spheres of cultural life including the private music education milieu.

520 $a The primary purpose of this study was to determine the current status of piano instruction in Penang, Malaysia and to explore the influence of a uniquely British tradition of music exams in a pluralistic and postcolonial Malaysian society. Private piano education in Malaysia is essentially peripatetic and is primarily dominated by foreign music examination boards. Despite achieving its independence since 1957, the vestiges of British colonialism is still very apparent, permeating all spheres of cultural life including the private music education milieu.
520 $a Central to this research was an investigation of the extant influence of the world's largest music examination board, The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) on the instructional practices of piano teachers in Penang. ABRSM, together with five other major music boards have played a vital role in the propagation of music examinations in Malaysia. Consequently, these examinations have by far become the primordial indicator of success in the process of music learning and teaching. This curious form of modus operandi in music education has perpetuated an examination-oriented culture that views music lessons as synonymous to music testing.
520 $a To facilitate the study of the current status of piano instruction, a survey was conducted on a random sample population of 100 piano instructors in Penang. Teachers were asked to identify their instructional practices and choice of teaching materials as they prepare students for entry into the ABRSM practical examination. The objectives and requirements of ABRSM's practical examinations beginning from the Preparatory Test to the FRSM level were expounded and discussed. The survey also attempted to determine the existence of any discrepancies between the objectives of the Associated Board in providing quality music assessment and the teaching approaches used by piano instructors in preparing their students for these music examinations.
520 $a The findings of the study revealed that a majority of piano teachers do not adopt effective pedagogical approaches in their teaching practice. This scenario in Penang's private music teaching arena is attributed to a myriad of factors, ranging from the lack of professional development support and resource of teaching materials to an educational system that substantially depends on examination results as an all-encompassing measure of musical achievement and development.
