O Fingerstyle Moderno na UFPB : uma pesquisa nos cursos de Licenciatura e Bacharelado em música da UFPB.

Abstract

This undergraduate thesis presents the results of a survey with two professors and three students enrolled on undergraduate music (guitar) courses. The work aimed to investigate and understand how modern fingerstyle techniques are addressed in guitar lessons at UFPB bachelor's and bachelor’s degree on music and music education courses, and as specific objectives: Verify if modern fingerstyle techniques and/or conceptions are present among the contents covered in guitar lessons; verify which methods and/or procedures are used for teaching and learning techniques. The research was carried out through a qualitative case study with professors and students of the undergraduate guitar course at UFPB. The instruments used for data collection were semi-structured interviews and observations. The results show that, despite the fact that there is no mention of the modern fingerstyle in the UFPB undergraduate guitar course, some techniques that compose it are studied or at least mentioned during the course's classes, thus favoring the students' learning abilities of modern fingerstyle.
