The aim of this study in which quasi-experimental design was used to investigate the effect of Kodaly method on the musical knowledge and skills of preservice classroom teachers. It was carried out with 97 classroom teacher candidates including 54 in the experimental group and 43 in the control group. ‘’The Musical Hearing Test’’ (Gürgen, 2007) and “The Basic Music Knowledge Test” developed by the first author was used. Music lesson plans which were prepared based on Kodaly method were used for eight weeks. As a result of the study, statistically significant difference was found in favor of the experimental group for the melodic success sub-dimension of the Musical Hearing Test. When the changes within the groups were examined, it was seen the melodic and musical pitch success scores of the experimental group increased significantly. When the results of “Basic Music Knowledge Test” were examined, statistically significant difference was observed in favor of the experimental group in terms of all dimensions
