Formação humana por meio das práticas musicais: uma pesquisa realizada no projeto de extensão Música na Periferia em Natal/RN

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the perception of coordinators and monitors of the Extension Project ―Música na Periferia‖ about the impact of the project on the lives of students served. Through bibliographic review, we seek to understand the concept of human formation, building a dialogical path analyzing the tenuous line of social projects and university extension projects, mainly directed to musical practices. It is a qualitative research, in which I use documentary research and the case study method, making it possible to identify specificities in the field of investigation that may generate discoveries within the theme addressed, ranging from the particular to the general. As a methodological procedure, I use questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, seeking to analyze and substantiate the relationship between musical practices and educational, social and human interactions. Thus, this research reveals the importance of university extension projects to boost the development of communities. Specifically, the UFRN ―Música na Periferia‖ Extension Project, allows the perception of the subjectivity of the construction processes of being, which can be stimulated and remodeled according to conceptions instructed through musical practices.
