RESUMO

The main objective of the present work was to investigate the situation of the discipline Musical Perception, within undergraduate courses in Brazil nowadays. Amongst professors from all over the country, it became possible to observe both structures and profile of the discipline in the curricular program as, for example, the quantity of professors, class hours, students in classrooms, besides opinions about pedagogical concerns, absolute ear and necessary qualities a good teacher should have to teach the subject. Two methodological approaches were used in order to reach these results: quantitative research, in which questionnaires were applied among sixty professors, who represented 89.65% of the Colleges that offer music courses in the country; and qualitative research, through interviews with five professors. The process of organization and interpretation of their information took long, but was criterious and based on the analyses of content according to Bardin (2002). So, in this study, percentages and tables go along with reflections about the obtained results. Initially, a bibliographical review was conducted to contextualize about the discipline, and also show what authors of the field have already told about this subject. When this search became more profound, getting to know the amount of academic work and related didactic material turned into a necessity, thus, there is an specific text about it in the first chapter. Gathering all trends of contents made possible to verify that, although isolated initiatives have been taken for a long time, the most effervescence about the subject has only taken place in the last years. The percentage indexes confirm complaints, and professor?s daily assertations reveal new facts, and moreover, their testimonies have immensely contributed to didactical aspects of the discipline. This way, a meticulous overview of the Musical Perception is presented in this dissertation
