AB While creativity is a primary focus in music education, its exploration within the realm of music studioteaching is considerably less extensive compared with other educational contexts. Moreover, the relatedresearch is predominantly focused on creativity in developing music skills. In the present study, weexplore how Spanish instrumental music teachers (n = 10) perceive creativity and its development amongstudents in the music studio, in the absence of predefined limitations (i.e., with respect to various forms anddefinitions of creativity inherent in the music studio as perceived from their viewpoint). By means of a casestudy methodology, we gathered data over a one-year period through a questionnaire, in-depth interviews,participants’ written essays, and researchers’ journal entries following observations of the participants’teaching practices. Subsequently, qualitative analysis was conducted using thematic analysis. Amongour main results, we found tensions between our participants’ theories and their practices, evidence foran underlying individual-centered theory of creativity, both positive and negative attitudes toward thedevelopment of creativity among their students, and ignorance of creativity in music listening. Our studyimplications emphasize the urgency of implementing strategies to enhance teacher self-awareness andunderscore the need for further investigation into music studio teaching with a specific focus on creativity.
