Music and Interculturality: interdisciplinary perspectives
Main Article Content
Abstract
This essay presents itself as an opportunity to converse about setting up a form of music education that has interculturality and interdisciplinarity as its principles. In these processes of learning and teaching music in elementary schools, we present throughout this study the creation of a theoretical framework on interculturality, interdisciplinarity and music education, aiming to relate, based on the principles of intercultural and interdisciplinary approaches, a kind of active curriculum in an education project that has music education as a curricular component. When discussing the methodological possibilities for music activities at school, we have interculturality and interdisciplinarity as our axis, perceiving music learning that takes place in local and global contexts, bringing to life a way of being in the world that will promote equality and respect for diversity. Thus, music education must value the music of the whole world and, based on its enjoyment and creation, bring it to the local context - interculturalism; or on the integration of musical knowledge into different areas of knowledge, allowing meaningful learning - interdisciplinarity. When we report and reflect on the didactic and methodological applications of music education, we evidence the role of schools in the light of the interculturalism phenomenon. Keywords: Musical Education; Interculturality; Interdisciplinarity.
