Abstract

The main objective of children's education is its usefulness to improve present and future quality of life in all areas, "social, cultural, psychological"; that is, achieve that, through their education, improve their personal behavior in relation to others. Starting from this premise, music education can contribute a lot for the fulfillment of this objective. Music is a natural, intimate and personal physiological phenomenon that is found within each person -the voice- and the sense of hearing; respond to emotional events that occur in the pulse, breathing, adrenaline, as well as the flow, as pointed out by Willen (1994). The use of music as a means of education today is very important because through it the student develops skills and attitudes that motivate him to perform integration and social solidarity actions that significantly benefit the groups where the student develops and apply the learned behavior through the choir. In this sense, choral practice during childhood is being established as a tool of the first order to favor school coexistence. The benefit of developing socio - affective cognitive skills through musical practice is to consider the student protagonist of a musical experience composed of activities that come out of everyday life, but that do not stop providing theoretical knowledge and also enhance the development of sensitivity, creativity and intrapersonal and interpersonal skills
