Escuta musical cotidiana e aprendizagem musical: um estudo com adolescentes

Abstract

This study analyzed the musical listening present in the daily lives of adolescents in a social project located in the city of Uberlândia (MG). Its specific objectives were to map various aspects of the social and musical reality that encompass the way they listen to music; identify which songs and styles are most listened to by them; identify which devices are most used; identify which applications are most frequent for listening to music; and identify in which environments and in which situations adolescents usually listen to music. The research considered studies on listening to and listening to music and mobile listening, as well as texts that address the functioning of applications, with emphasis on authors such as BULL (2006, SOUZA and TORRES (2009) and RAMOS (2012). For this study, the participants who contributed to the data collection were sixteen teenagers who attended a social project. The results indicated the cell phone as the main device for listening to music, due to its mobility. Furthermore, it was possible to identify which places and at what times they listen to music the most. In addition, it highlighted funk as the main musical genre listened to by them and also showed which applications are the most used to listen to music, with emphasis on the social networks Instagram and TikTok and the streaming platforms Spotify and eSound. In this way, the research offers a contribution to music education because daily listening can bring contributions to musical learning that can happen unconsciously.
