The present study one is about an understanding on the process of education and learning of music of children with Syndrome of Down, aiming at to understand the expectations, necessities and particularitities of learning of these. The central objective of this research is to understand as the musical learning of children with Syndrome of Down in a group with neurotípicas children (without upheavals of the development that involves significant riots in the psychic functioning) through the education of violin in group developed for the Program occurs Ropes of the Amazônia - PCA of the Program of After-Graduation in Arts of the Federal University of Pará - PPGARTES. For this, a case study was carried through, with the collection of data carried through by means of participant comment, in which notations in a notebook of field had been collected and also by means of photographic and audiovisuals registers. To evaluate the learning of the violin students, Scale of Evaluation of the Musical Learning of the Violin was used. With respect to the results of the research of participants B and C with SD, it can be said that they had reached excellent levels of learnings in the violin lessons. They had demonstrated agreement of the given commands, answered to the questions carried through for the professors, observed the professors and they imitated them in the execution of the activities, some times observed the colleagues and copied the gestures carried through for these. The results, still designate, that the technique of the pizzicato called for the professors of the project as “duck peak” very was well assimilated by the great majority of the pupils. It was observed that participants SD had memorized the songs well that determined the beginning and the end of the activities with the retention of short and long stated periods of learning and assimilation of the functions of each melody (entrance music/music to raise arm/e farewell music). How much to the terms of the learning technique in the instrument, they had presented effectiveness in the activities of shelter, thick motor coordination in the heating dances and relaxation. A valid strategy of education very used by the project, and that it deserves to be detached, was the use of visual resources (figure 9) to facilitate to the learning of all the group. One perceives that the collective education of violin practised for the project promotes the integration and socialization of the children, beyond facilitating the learnings of all, mainly of children SD. Reflecting on these questions, one searched to evidence the specificities of the carriers of the SD contributing with information for the area of the musical education guaranteeing the right of the pupil in inclusion situation to receive education from quality. We consider that still it has very if to contribute for the formation of professors, pedagogical strategies, practical methodologies and for the people with Syndrome of Down.
