Mediação artístico-músico-pedagógica nas oficinas de percussão no projeto "Samba Mirim Filhos de Maria"

Abstract

The present research took place in the Drums workshops with the Samba Mirim Filhos de Maria group, an initiative articulated by the Associação Sócio Cultural de Matarandiba (ASCOMAT), which serves children and youngsters living in the community of shellfish gatherers and fishermen located in the Itaparica Island coast (a municipality in the metropolitan region of Salvador). It was considered that the way found by the music teacher to deal with the events occurring in the context of the project could be understood as a form of mediation that permeates the artistic, musical and pedagogical aspects. The research aims to understand how artistic-musical-pedagogical mediation occurs in the transmission of knowledge in the Drums Workshops held with the Samba Mirim Filhos de Maria group. As theoretical framework it has been used the perspective of authors who discuss the samba de roda from Recôncavo and the concepts of community and mediation. From the methodological point of view, this is qualitative research that used as a research method the ethnographic case study. The outcomes point out that artistic-musical-pedagogical mediation (MAMP) occurs in the transmission of knowledge in the percussion workshops with the Samba Mirim Filhos de Maria group through strategies proposed by the music teacher in order to enhance the experiences lived by the workshop participants in different situations, called in this research as learning generators, which occurred both within the project and in its surroundings. This is a perspective that is also in line with the oral tradition, an epistemology typical of traditional communities, in which a wide range of knowledge is constructed in the context of everyday life.
