| Abstract | In the field of research on creativity and children's musical compositions, there is a growing concern with regards to educational perspectives that seek to listen to children; where analyzes and criticisms made by the children themselves gain importance. From this perspective, we discuss the intersubjective processes of music criticism constructed in creative learning, which is the theoretical reference that guides this study. A case study was conducted with a second-grade class in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Using a qualitative approach, the methodology included direct observation, semi-structured and reflection interviews by means of video recordings with the participant class teacher and focus groups with the children. In this process, the children analyzed, reflected on, discussed and evaluated their musical compositions, thus making it possible to discover their ideas about music that guided their comments and criticisms. When the children made suggestions on the compositions of their peers, they would reveal, each in their own way, their concepts about how music should be, while new ideas of music were introduced and incorporated. It was found that the intersubjective processes of evaluation, under an approach that includes analysis, reflection and musical criticism, opened space that broadens children’s ideas about music, thereby activating creative learning. The results revealed the construction of intersubjective criteria of music criticism by students who, facilitated by the teacher, negotiated and shared musical ideas. Consequently, the group may be considered a community of musical practice in a process of shared understanding that constitutes the basis of social and pedagogical constructions in which teachers and students can be transformed into subjects/actors of collaborative learning. |
