Abstract
This paper discusses the musical epistemology concomitant with an ontology of music centred on music as an object, both foundations of the hegemonic musical theoretical/pedagogical model: the conservatory model. In particular, it is proposed to investigate the scope and limitations of some of the categories derived from the privileged object-text of this ontology: the score, and its incidence in the processes of musical significance in which early undergraduate students participate. In this direction, it is intended to show how these musical epistemology and ontology deal only with partial aspects of the musical experience, while at the same time making others invisible or subordinate. Finally, it tries to highlight other ontologies of music, such as action and participation.
This research and discussion is based on the analysis of a classroom experience led by the author, with support in the ideas of pedagogy of potency, non-parametral didactics and Bonsai pedagogy by Estela Quintar and Hugo Zemelman and Coloniality of Power, Being and Knowledge proper to the decolonial perspective.
