This article introduces the preliminary results of research conducted within the context of a project entitled “Opera as a Vehicle for Learning” (LÓVA), carried out with a group of fourth-grade elementary students in Mexico City during the 2017-2018 school year. The study is framed epistemologically within the interpretive paradigm and employs a case study methodology. The objective was to explore and understand the processes whereby citizenship is informed by musical education; in this respect, the students’ creation, development, and performance of an original work of opera fostered their awareness of their rights and responsibilities, social engagement and commitment, and recognition of diversity.

Palabras llave : music education; citizenship education; social development.
