ART AND INCLUSION IN VYGOTSKY: CULTURAL ACCESSIBILITY IN MUSIC

ABSTRACT In the most diverse cultures, the arts are everyday activities in human life. However, they are still experienced as something for a few - for those who supposedly have a gift or are genetically predisposed. When it comes to diversity, this discussion becomes even more heated, highlighting the issue of exclusion from the artistic experience. Therefore, the present study aimed to reflect on the inclusion of cultural tools for accessibility to deaf people in the field of musical activity. As a methodological bias, bibliographical research was used, as well as the analysis of inclusion projects undertaken both in Universities and in social projects, based on the bases of Historical-Cultural Psychology, from this perspective, it is concluded that the arts are an essential part of human activity, serving as cultural experiences necessary for human development, as well as techniques and tools for expressing emotions.
