Concretely, this research aims to determinate how far the musical subject of Wind Ensemble, as a practice of chamber music, with all its advantages, could assume itself as a highly facilitating context to the inclusion described above. After concluding a bibliographic revision about the topics presented, it was applied a qualitative method design, through the application of inquiry technique, represented in a in a questionary to all the students that have frequented this subject in CCM, so we could get practical and concrete data about this possibility.

The approach of parents in the learning process of their children was also thought of, seeing that it enables a bigger family accompaniment, by being able to understand the themes in music, enhancing the sense of cultural and social community, and acting as a strong motivational factor to students. In a context in what the large majority of students are still initiating their musical development and in what the age approached is the second degree - between 10 and 12 years old - the fact that they have the possibility of developing a chamber music work, such as in this Ensemble, it was aimed to revive our traditional music in an ative way, transporting it to our present time with the necessary modifications that it implies, illustrating the obvious advantages that it brings to a well succeeded musical learning.
