ARNDT, Andressa Dias    MAHEIRIE, Kátia. Music as a mediator of meetings in a CRAS. Pesqui. prát. psicossociais []. 2017, 12, 2, pp.439-452. ISSN 1809-8908.

In the present paper we introduce analysis and considerations resulting from a qualitative intervention-research with community character, where social psychology based on social historical psychology is linked to social community music therapy. In it, music is treated as a mediator agent in meetings at a Social Services Center in the metropolitan area of Curitiba. As a mediator agent, music was able to configure a type of creative, affective, polysemic and polyphonic collective experience. Music is seen as a process and human product allowing the opening of spaces for the creation and strengthening of social ties. The results point out in this experience an increase in the participants' existing power and the creation of a collective process in the construction of a WE, inaugurating ways of acting, thinking and feeling.
