Abstract
This research investigates the influence of music on English language learning among Generation Alpha students at SMP IT Sains Albiruni in Bandung, Indonesia. Data were gathered using semi-structured interviews and questionnaires from five participants chosen through purposive sampling, utilizing a qualitative case study methodology. According to Automaticity Theory (LaBerge & Samuels, 1974; DeKeyser, 2001), the results indicate that 94% of students perceive vocabulary retention as more manageable when facilitated by music, whereas 100% acknowledge enhanced pronunciation. Furthermore, 89% of participants assert that music improves their enthusiasm to acquire English. Music-based learning promotes student engagement with authentic language input and enhances listening comprehension abilities. The research indicates that incorporating music-based techniques into language education improves engagement, language proficiency, and motivation among Generation Alpha students.
