A atuação de regentes de bandas no ensino de metais em duas escolas públicas do município de Bagé / RS

Abstract

The aim of this work is to investigate and reflect on the role of conductors in teaching brass in two public school bands in the city of Bagé/RS, identifying the challenges, incentives and their social meanings based on theories of everyday life (SOUZA, 2000), which seek to understand the subjects' relationships with music based on their day-to-day relationships. Based on this trajectory in the field of brass band teaching, some research questions were raised, such as: What is the musical training of school band conductors? What are their repertoire choices? What are the musical teaching and learning processes like in this context? The methodological approach used was chosen based on the guidelines of qualitative research in music education. As a result, we observed the role of conductors in brass teaching and the importance of bands in the school context, seeking not only to understand the complexities involved, but also to propose reflections that can positively impact both practice and theory.
