Abstract

This article presents part of the results of the research project entitled "Articulation of music pedagogical process outside the formal school setting: a multicase study in Porto Alegre, RS". The aim is to analyze specific musical practices of three rock bands in Brazil. Within this process we investigated the ways in which they develop activities such as composition, listening, performance as well as the practice of rehearsal and choice of repertoire. The study employed a multicase methodology using semi-structured interview and non-participant observation as data collection techniques. The results show the musical learning processes of adolescents that had music education in schools and nowadays work as semi-professional musicians.
