Given these results, pedagogical strategies are proposed that aim to integrate the teaching of popular music into the flute curriculum in academia, such as creating arrangements adapted to the instrument, using technological resources and encouraging participation in popular music groups. In conclusion, this study emphasizes the importance of teaching popular music for flute in academia, highlighting its benefits for the musical development of students.
