Choral Practice: Constant learning! It doesn't matter whether we are conductors, choristers, instrumentalists or listeners. Everyone wins! Writing about the musical learning that took place in this empirical field, as well as the interactions that were promoted, was a great learning experience. I observed that each of the children researched learned vital tools to lead their lives in a way that was more in line with their desires, as well as gaining more awareness to deal with their musical, emotional and social lives. I also observed that the learning acquired during the experience of singing in a choir was not just limited to music. Interactions took place in the courtyards, at public performances and even outside the choir context. This shows that these other encounters reinforced those interactions that occurred naturally during rehearsals, thus forming a unity that is necessary for their harmony in music and in life.
