《為兒童的音樂》作品六十五是浦羅柯菲夫於一九三五年，為教學目的而創作的鋼琴曲集，共包含十二首具有標題的小品，其風格涵蓋浦羅柯菲夫音樂中的五項特色，包括「新古典主義」、「創新」、「觸技曲風格」、「抒情」與「怪誕」，每首樂曲的音樂內容皆配合標題，提供演奏者圖畫式的想像空間，並藉由音階、琶音、分解和絃、大跳音程、雙手交叉、多聲部織度彈奏、圓滑奏、斷奏、斷連奏、持續奏等多種技巧，生動地描繪標題所闡述的內容，使演奏者得以學習運用技巧來營造適當的音樂情境與深刻內涵，十分有助於擴展並啟發演奏者的音樂感受與表達能力。本文在研究技巧與音樂性之關係的同時，將結合學者桑德爾的技巧理論，進一步提供具體的演奏建議。本文除了前言與結論外，共分為三個章節。第一章首先概述浦羅柯菲夫的生平與創作風格，藉以建立對作曲家的基本認識，第二章研究《為兒童的音樂》鋼琴曲集之創作背景，同時逐一分析十二首樂曲的結構及創作手法，第三章以浦羅柯菲夫創作之五大獨特音樂風格與學者桑德爾之理論結合應用為基礎，探討此作品中技巧訓練與音樂性啟發之教學價值。

Music for Children op. 65, containing twelve entitled pieces, was composed by S. Prokofiev in 1935 with clearly pedagogical purpose. The styles of the pieces cover the five main categories (or “lines”, as the composer called) of Prokofiev music, including the classical, the modern, the toccata, the lyrical, and the grotesque. The musical content of each piece correlates with its title, and also provides picturesque imagination vividly by employing different piano techniques, such as scales, arpeggios, broken chords, leaps, hand-crossing, contrapuntal texture, legato, staccato, portato, and tenuto. Performers learn to use these techniques to create the musical scenes and profundity. It is helpful to performers to extend their musical sensation and the ability of expression. While exploring the connection between techniques and musical interpretation, this research will combine the piano technique theory of Gyorgy Sandor to provide more specific suggestions of piano playing. This thesis is divided into three chapters except the preface and the conclusion. The first chapter presents briefly the life of Prokofiev and his characteristic style. The second chapter discusses the background of Music for Children, and analyzes the formal structures and compositional traits of the twelve pieces. Based on the five unique musical elements of Prokofiev and Sandor’s theory, the third chapter researches the pedagogical value of both technique concept and musical inspiration from Music for Children.
