Abstract

The schools of Singular Educational Action host (in Spanish CAES) a diversity of children from different backgrounds who usually belong to poor families and neighborhoods classified as particularly disadvantaged groups. In this particular context, we present an educational experience that aims to bring contemporary sound creation to the classroom through the participation of artists in residence.
