Hierarchy of values and choral practice in the university context of Ecuador
Abstract
The aim of this study is to explore the contribution of choral practice in the development of values of a group of university singers from Ecuador. For this purpose, a survey based on Schwartz's Theory of Values is applied that seeks to discern which values are developed according to the criteria of the participants, to a greater or lesser extent, within the choir. In this way, it was possible to establish a hierarchy where hedonism, conformity and benevolence appear as the most developed values, while power and security are among the lowest values. Thus, the principle that collective musical practices are suitable for the formation of values is strengthened.
