L’articolo argomenta come sia possibile promuovere un’educazione musicale di elevata qualità nei sistemi educativi 0-6 anni, in linea con le attese stabilite dall’Unione Europea, collocandola nel quadro di una formazione estetica orientata in senso storico e culturale e in quadri programmatici capaci di sostenere la progettazione educativa in questo ambito. Su queste basi l’articolo propone un’idea di educazione curriculare alla musica d’arte nella prima infanzia, intenzionalmente orientata a precise aree formative, ossia ad aree della progettazione educativa che intercettino le dimensioni di sviluppo del bambino tra 0 e 6 anni. La riflessione s’incentra anche su alcune premesse metodologiche che rendono possibili le condizioni per un apprendimento attivo e cooperativo: il tipo di approccio e l’atteggiamento di educatrici, educatori e insegnanti; la prospettiva educativa; le caratteristiche dell’ambiente per l’educazione alla musica d’arte; il suo allestimento; i materiali didattici, rispetto ai quali suggerisce alcuni indicatori per buoni audiolibri di musica d’arte. Infine, per un’alta qualità dell’educazione nella prima infanzia propone alcune linee guida per strategie costruttive del pensare e dell’agire del bambino che collegano con continuità i due assi dell’esperienza musicale, ricettivo e produttivo, epistemico e poietico, attraverso l’integrazione di attività di ascolto e attività di produzione musicale.

Abstract
This article argues that it is possible to promote high-quality music education in 0-to-6-years educational systems, in keeping with the expectations set by the European Union. This can be achieved by placing music education within the framework of a historically and culturally-oriented aesthetic apprenticeship, and within program frameworks capable of supporting educational planning in this area. On the basis, the article proposes an idea of curricular art music education in early childhood that is intentionally targeted at specific instructive areas, namely areas of educational planning that can have a bearing on dimensions of development of children between 0 and 6 years. These reflections also focus on a set of methodological premises that provide the conditions for an active and cooperative learning: the type of approach and the attitude of educators and teachers; the educational perspective; the characteristics of the environment for art music education; its setting; the teaching materials, suggesting in particular some indicators to choose good art music audiobooks. Finally, for high quality early childhood education, this contribution proposes a series of guidelines on constructive strategies for the child’s thinking and action, which seamlessly connect the two axes of musical experience – receptive and productive, epistemic and poietic – by integrating listening activities and music production activities.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
