Abstract/Summary

Different kinds of music draw out different effects to the listeners’ physical, mental or emotional and spiritual aspects. Rock music is the youth music and its their way of addressing their social, spiritual problems and express their emotions. According to Frith (1981) and Weintein (1994), rock music is inseparable from the youth; and as long as youth exists rock music exists, too. This is why rock music is so appealing to the youth even if it produces aberrant behavior. Because of this, there is a need to determine the religious and educational values of rock music. It is in this light that the researcher pursued to conduct a study on the perceive religious and educational values by the senior high school students of Divine Word College of Legazpi in Contemporary Pinoy rock music. This study was designed to effectively determine the religious and educational values in contemporary Pinoy Rock compositions as perceived by the senior high school students of Divine Word College of Legazpi. Pinoy rock music can be used to inculcate in them a sense of responsibility, to be properly educated and guided in their choice of music and not to leave the freedom of listening to rock music all by themselves. It can also be used to strengthen Christian values learned in their daily life experiences and practices. This study used the classroom as the venue to prove that the students’ perception regarding the religious and educational values in contemporary Pinoy rock compositions are true and jibe with the Gospel values.
