This article presents the results of an integrative literature review that involved dissertations and doctoral theses carried out in Portugal and Brazil between 2001 and 2013, in order to contribute to the state of the art. To guide the empirical research the following starting questions were: what is researched in Portugal and Brazil on the use of technology in both the teaching and learning music process? What problems / research questions are the studies supported on? Are any methodologies that support this empirical research being implemented? What results have been achieved? After a research in different repositories and databases, documentary corpus comprised 40 publications, of which 34 are master dissertations and six doctoral theses. For purposes of presentation of data, the articles were grouped according to four major thematic areas: i) studies with generalist approach; ii) studies whose focus uses and evaluate the use of existing software, iii) studies whose focus is the creation and evaluation of new prototypes / sites / software and finally iv) studies whose focus is the training of teachers' online education. In this sense it is acknowledged that the various technological tools in music can be the guiding principle for the development of numerous learning processes as well as the development of motivation and commitment, enhancing the achievement of new skills, there being, nevertheless, still a lot to explore in this field in which education and development of music in different grades and grade levels are concerned.
