Introduction: In recent years, vocational music education has continuously evolved to align with 21st-century learning paradigms. However, piano instruction in vocational settings remains largely rooted in traditional. Objective: This study aims to examine the application of Carl Orff-based music teaching activities in piano instruction at Fujian Economics School and to analyze their effects on students’ motivation and participation. Method: A qualitative approach was employed, including interviews with three piano teachers and classroom observations of first-year students. Results: indicate that Orff-based activities enhanced students’ musical understanding, increased learning enthusiasm, and promoted active participation. Students showed improvement in rhythm, performance skills, listening, memory, and concentration, leading to greater confidence and motivation. Conclusion: the Orff approach creates an interactive and engaging learning environment while supporting students’ musical development and cultural awareness.
