Adolescence and musical practice are concepts closely related because of the functionality that music plays in the teenager lives. The present study, focused on the associative phenomena of young bands and choirs in Valencian Community and Catalonia, respectively, aims to describe and analyze the socio-emotional profile of teenagers who belong this type of music ensembles. To achieve this goal, a protocol of questionnaires (ad hoc, LID and MOT) was applied in an extract of 660 teenagers. The results obtained confirm that there is a very favorable social atmosphere in youth music ensembles, where teenagers, in addition to learning music, also get multiple benefits derived from aesthetic joy, friendships, belonging feeling, etc., all this will contribute to the integral development of the teenagers.Downloads
