Abstract:
In this paper we gather a working proposal for student teachers on the qualities of music using musical hearing. Through all the teaching auditions presented in this proposal, we aim to: encourage the habit of active listening, raise sensory and effectively awareness, assess hearing, enjoy musical works as both individual and collective, educate inner listening skills, value silence as an essential element for musical performance and capture the expressive contrast between sound and silence.

Hearing education as an integral and fundamental music is essential to complete training and total musical development of the child. The ear training is one of the primary objectives of the process of music composition. Singing, playing an instrument, moving to music and developing creativity are among others, various forms to educate the ear. Furthermore, it can be used as a technique to encourage the development of attention, the habit of listening, observation, analysis and development of sensitivity, and it is an indispensable element in the practice of relaxation.
