Long abstract | The chapter offers a developmental and cross-cultural perspective aiming to compare the results of the Western Balkans and international studies. It opens up questions about the joint contribution of motivation and personality in achieving musical excellence. Their core role is featured through the developmental prospect focusing on music performance accomplishments. The main results are presented from several research studies conducted in the Western Balkans, specifically in Serbia, which cover three age groups (aged 6–22) learning music as part of the three-staged specialist music education system. The research review indicates the relevance and differential contribution of motivational features and personality traits, as well as musical abilities and social settings, to various levels of achievement. Results indicate changes in prevalence of contribution depending on developmental stages. Attention is given to the nexus of psychological and environmental factors that strongly impact musical outcomes at each developmental stage. The studies from the Western Balkans are highlighted to evaluate cultural perspectives and variations. |
