Music, Education, Language, Young people, PedagogyAbstract
The language of young people often appears obscure and distant. It is certainly different, but this diversity is a consequence of the vitality of language and idiom themselves. For adults, this difficulty of approach, of contact, can be converted into an opportunity for mutual knowledge, as long as they are able to meet young people on their own ground, getting closer to them. Can music be a useful tool, just in case? The reflection applies to the school and the family areas.
