The subject of musical education in generalist teacher’s education, particularly in Elementary Education programs, associated to the generalist teacher’s professional modes of action, has been object of research by music and education scholars, both in the national and international context. We understand that nature of elementary teachers is complex and includes many areas necessary to the development of students. This paper’s objective is to discuss generalist teaching and to present some insights regarding the education and practice of these teachers. To that end, we present a review of the research literature on music education in the Education Major coursework and part of an ongoing research based on the narrative of primary school teachers, on their modes of being a generalist teacher and the presence of Music in their teaching practices. The results show that musical education has been present, with different degrees of potentiality, but also with limitations, in the education and teaching practices of generalist teachers. Therefore, we understand the importance of more research regarding Music Education in Elementary Education curricula and in the practice of generalist teachers.
