dc.description.abstract | Colonialism, as a civilizing process, has imposed models on all spheres of colonized societies; and through formal music education, a model has been established above all other music in the world. In this context, popular music, is established as a breaking point between the colonized and colonial model. Then, we present the two transverse axes of this work, the decolonial thought, as a philosophical current that supports the concept of rupture of established model; and popular music, conceiving it at the current historical moment as a big musical mass that fluctuates between the popular and the traditional. As a final part, there is a reference to the piano as an icon instrument of classical music, and its antagonism to popular music of the world. | |
