Traditional musical education, such as music theory and history, as well as actual performance skills, are frequently covered in the curriculum. In addition to examining the effects of psychological stress and gender on piano performance in Chinese colleges, the study focuses on empowering music students and incorporates planned behaviour theory. There are 420 students from several Chinese institutions participated in an online and in-person survey that collected the data for the analysis.
