The teaching of music and its relation to the soundscape as a tool in the construction of an intelligent listening

Abstract

This scientific research deals with the inseparable relationship between music and the environment, understanding that Music Teaching occupies prime place in the relation between noise pollution and the lack of selective hearing. We aimed to build the concept of Intelligent Hearing, understanding the relationship between Music Teaching and Sound Landscape from the theoretical contribution of Raymond Murray Schafer, the understanding and analysis of the relationship between cultural industry and social environment from the philosophical thinking of Theodor Wiesehngrund Adornment. We established an analysis of the Adornian concept of Cultural Industry, understanding of the concept of "Sound Landscape" and reflection on the place to be constituted by the musical educator. The Participatory Research with a qualitative paradigm was constituted as a methodological principle adequate to our research needs. We conclude that the concept of Intelligent Hearing built in this research has foundation, relevance and translates into a useful way to be used by music education teachers.
