Propuesta metodológica para la formación de un conjunto coral para la tercera edad en la ciudad de Cuenca

Abstract

The objective of this work was to make a methodological proposal for the formation of choirs of senior citizens in the city of Cuenca. For the purposes of the research, a bibliographic review of the material related to the subject was carried out, and the criteria of the choral directors María Eugenia Arias, Nelys Cañizares, Rene Duque, Yanella Duarte, Freddy Godoy, Enrique Silva, Leonel Palacios and Nanette Sanchez were consulted. The methodological proposal is adapted to the needs of the senior age group and is divided into an admission test, technical vocal exercises, repertoire proposal and the process of joining the works. Complementing the methodological process, the material has been applied during three weeks of rehearsal to the senior Choir of the University for the Elderly (UPAM). The final result is an evaluation of the methodological proposal and its application, validated by experts Nelys Cañizares, René Duque and Leonel Palacios.
