A educação musical no trabalho do regente com e sem formação, de coros sacros protestantes

Abstract

Music has always been present in religious circles and churches have long sought to ensure the use of music during their celebrations. Sacred choirs are a powerful means of making music education a reality for people who have little or no musical knowledge. The role of the conductor is extremely relevant in this homogeneity (vocal and collective harmonization) amidst heterogeneity (differences in personalities). The general objective of this work is to investigate the relationship between the conductor and the Music Education activities carried out in Protestant sacred choirs, so that questions about how the conductor can act as a musical educator for sacred choirs can be discussed further. This research is under the aegis of Bibliographical Research and Field Research, with data obtained through the application of (open) questionnaires to trained and untrained conductors of sacred choirs and those currently working. In this research, it was possible to observe, through the participants' responses, that the conductor's musical training is extremely important for a conscious and productive musical educational process to take place, and for rehearsals and performances to be more satisfactory. It was found that the conductor has a necessary and important role in the musical education of sacred choir members
