The child-study movement was a late-nineteenth- and early twentieth-century educational fashion whose impetus came from the influences of Darwin's Origin of Species (1859) and from the advent of empirical psychology in the 1860s and 1870s. Child-study leaders sought to reform the public schools, calling for widespread and "scientific" observation and study of children. Music educators adopted some child-study principles, incorporating them in certain vocal music series and music appreciation textbooks. These books contained, for example, materials designed to correspond to the various stages of interest and maturity in children. Several nonmusician child-study researchers began to gather data relative to musical learning, while psychological literature on music perception proliferated. Music teachers, more interested in teaching methods, left research activities to future generations of music educators.

Compared to the relatively steady spread of vocal music instruction, instrumental music was slow to take its place in the school curriculum. Orchestras, based on community models, and bands, based on military band models, entered the schools in mass beginning in the first decades of the twentieth century. By the beginning of World War II, spurred on by instrument manufacturers, contests, and athletics, bands were found in most American high schools and orchestras were in many schools as well, mainly in larger cities.
