Dissertação (Mestrado em Música) - Escola de Música, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2019.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/jspui/handle/123456789/28307In this research, entitled "Euphonium Teaching at Higher Education Level in the Federal Universities of Brazil", we investigated the characteristics of euphonium teaching, with references to instrumental practice and the teaching of the instrument. The research sought to understand the teaching process in these federal institutions that have the college degree in this instrument, at present. To achieve the general objective and specific objectives, four semistructured interviews were conducted with university professors: Professor Jean Silva of the Federal University of Campina Grande (UFCG), tubist and bass trombonist; Professor Iris Vieira of the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB), Tubist; Professor Albert Khattar of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), tubist; and Professor Fernando Deddos of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), being the only euphoniumist. In order to know the main methodological characteristics of euphonium teaching and also to analyze the course plans of these universities, we sought to identify the traditional and non-traditional teaching materials in use, as well as to verify the types of repertoire contemplated. An exploratory literature review was also conducted, focusing on performance-related works that portray instrumental practice and how to play an instrument, as well as works related to Musical Education, as well as other pedagogical issues related to musical instruments. In this sense, the theoretical framework sought to present the works that are most related to this research, in order to identify peculiarities related to both the instructor's teacher and the student and to discuss about particularities as to the technical skills needed by the euphonist, graduated in these institutions. In addition to the theoretical framework, with the result of the interviews, it was possible to know the profile of the teachers interviewed and some aspects that shaped their teaching activity, elucidating the methodological characteristics of what has been the teaching of euphonium in the country, especially in the context of higher education. At Brazilian federal universities. It was possible to realize that there is harmony between the purposes of teachers and students, which have qualities that allow the facilitation of teaching and are flexible as to the didactic material, methods and / or repertoire used. Within this flexibility, it was observed that the didactic materials and repertoires are not common to the four universities, however, only two were presented by all teachers interviewed. It was possible to realize that there is no consensus about the repertoire used, that there is no way to define a repertoire taken as standard. However, they seek to contemplate all periods with transcriptions / adaptations / arrangements, original works, Brazilian pieces, solos and chamber music. Teachers encourage the practice of playing by ear; exploration of new possibilities; and score editing. It was noticed that the ETB association has collaborated with the construction of a knowledge bridge, allowing dialogue between teachers and students. It has been found that what has been done about the euphonium performance and teaching in Brazil, although relevant, still has much to advance.Acesso AbertoEufônioPerformancePrática instrumentalEnsino de instrumentomasterThesisCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::ARTES::MUSICA
