Abstract

This paper reflects on musical teaching in Lower Secondary Education from the perspective of an educationalist and music therapist. It shows a searching process which aims at creating a participatory, comprehensive, creative, critical and emotionally expressive student body, regarding the diversity among it. Considering that art education is unvalued in our sociocultural context, music teachers have to battle between the possibilities musical practice offers to inclusive education and the limits imposed by education laws and society. The article does not pretend to show a methodology, but to invite education community to think, re-think and think-of-us about an inclusive musical education, which will offer chances to live and feel within the music in the current educational framework.
