Aprendizados desenvolvidos na roda de choro da UFC – Sobral

Abstract

This research analyzes the learnings and impacts of the implementation of a roda de choro inside the Federal University of Ceará, Sobral Campus. After the creation of the grupo de choro of UFC, there was the need to create a roda de choro in the university to expand the experience and exploration of this Brazilian genre and his repertoire, which is not well known within the academic space of the Music graduation course. Instead of the conventional roda de choro, our was made to be pedagogical. The pedagogic roda de choro is an environment focused on the collective musical development of the participants, that way doing great performances here are non-essential thing. Our roda de choro has always oriented to be didactic and inviting. We always take care to maintain an easy repertoire, released in advance, with fixed location and with the same day and time, all setup to encourage more people to participate, especially for the students of the Music graduation course, so to get to know and learn to play that kind of genre.
