Abstract
In this research, the aim is to determine the effect of piano education on visual memory. One of the quantitative research methods, experimental research design, was used in the study, and the study group was determined with the purposive sampling method. The short-term visual memory of the students aged from 8 to 12 (experimental n=36, control n=42) in the study group was measured with the Benton Visual Retention Test F Form. To determine the effect of the practice for the experimental and control groups, t-tests and two-way analysis of variance (mixed-design ANOVA) were performed for the pretest and posttest. The short-term visual retention test pre-test and post-test results of the experimental group students who took private piano lessons and the control group students who did not take piano lessons were analyzed regarding their age, and it was determined that the short-term visual memory of the experimental group students was better than the control group. The research is considered significant, as it will contribute to the disciplines dealing with child development, piano teachers and other researchers working on this subject.

To answer the first research question of the study, the short-term visual memory levels of the students in the experimental and control groups regarding their ages were examined at the end of the pre-test
The first research question of the study was about the pre-test comparison of the short-term visual memory test of the experimental and control group students
Summary
At the end of the 19th century, musicians made an effort to play the works by heart to reveal the aesthetic norms while displaying their performance skills in front of the public. This was effective in their development of a good musical memory. Memory refers to the processes of remembering, preserving and reproducing the life experiences of individuals. Musical memory is an important part of musical abilities and refers to memorizing a musical work, preserving it permanently and reproducing it most accurately even after a long time. Musical memory begins with ‘recognition’ and is shaped by ‘experience’ (Efimova, 2017)
